Union is in bed with the coal operators (call of berettas) 
Carry are freedom looking for something 
To get you family better life for every single day  
 
Some things keep me going 
Well I got no one to blame 
Five o'clock is comin' 
Do you feel the same? 
When a lonely whistle 
Calls out your name? 
 
What a man likes to see 
When they come after mine 
No prettiness for the mighty black lung 
Rank and file workers, rank and file minds 
Take off the gloves and sock it to 'em 
 
Some things keep me going 
Well I got no one to blame 
Five o'clock is comin' 
Do you feel the same? 
When a lonely whistle 
Calls out your name? 
 
Hey young believer/unbeliever (Hey) 
Black lung fever (Hey) 
Transmit receiver (Hey) 
Backed up deceiver (Hey) 
Well I don't like it either (Hey) 
We're all presidents for the (Hey) 
Black lung fever (Hey) 
 
Some things keep me going 
Well I got no one to blame 
Five o'clock is comin' 
Do you feel the same? 
When a lonely whistle 
Calls out your name?
