One Mile Deep

[00:11.34] Ridin' two blind horses as they carry me to hell

[00:19.32] There's a burnin' in my eyes

[00:23.31] And brimstones all that I can smell

[00:26.22] I felt the mountain crumble as the walls began to fall

[00:34.46] I came to make a livin' but now I'm underneath it all

[00:41.36] I can hear angels callin'

[00:48.00] But it feels like the devil has my hand

[00:55.18] Come tomorrow I'll be right here in this place

[01:03.41] Without a sound

[01:06.07] Where no light shines

[01:09.25] Way down in the mine

[01:24.13] Like others done before me

[01:27.32] I left my home in Tennessee

[01:31.03] To work a Kentucky coal mine in 1923

[01:37.41] The ten of us were one mile deep

[01:40.87] When the beams began to crack

[01:44.33] We all went down in a coal mine

[01:47.50] Though we never made it back

[01:50.69] I can hear angels callin'

[01:56.29] But it feels like the devil has my hand

[02:03.99] And come tomorrow I'll be right here in this place

[02:11.69] Without a sound

[02:14.62] Where no light shines

[02:18.60] Way down in the mine

[02:32.67] Well don't you cry now darlin'

[02:48.88] Everything's gonna be alright

[02:52.63] There's angels here to take me now and I know

[02:57.94] One day we'll meet on high

[03:02.19] 'Cause I see the light

[03:05.13] Way down in the mine
