Sprinkle Coal Dust On My Grave chords by Orville J. Jenks
I'm just an old coal miner
And I labored for my bread
This story in my memory I hear told
For the sake of wife and baby
How a miner risks his life
For the price of just a little lump of coal.
Don't forget me, little darling,
When they lay me down to rest,
Tell my brothers all these loving words I say
Let the flowers be forgotten,
Sprinkle coal dust on my grave
In remembrance of the U M W A
Mother Jones is not forgotten
By the miners of this field,
She's gone to rest above,
God bless her soul
Tried to lead the boys to victory.
But was punished here in jail,
For the price of just a little lump of coal.
When a miner in the morning
Gets his car up to the face
He'll set some timbers
And he'll bore himself a hole
He'll get a shot of powder
Get his battery and his line
He's shooting down that little lump of coal
When a man has toiled and labored
'Til his life it's almost gone,
Then the operator thinks he's just a fool
They sneak around and fire him
Just because he's growing old,
And swear they caught him breaking company rules.
Don't forget me, little darling,
When they lay me down to rest,
Tell my brothers all the loving words I say
Let the flowers be forgotten,
Sprinkle coal dust on my grave
In remembrance of the U M W A
