Working Man

Chorus
It’s a working man l am
And I’ve been down under ground
And I swear to God if lever see the sun
Or for any length of time
I can hold it in my mind
I never again will go down under ground

At the age of sixteen years
Oh he quarrels with his peers
Who vowed they’d never see another one
In the dark recess of the mines
Where you age before your time
And the coal dust has heavy on your lungs

Chorus

At the age of sixty-four
Oh hell greet you at the door
And hell gently lead you by the arm
Through the dark recess of the mines
Oh hell take you back in time
And hell tell you of the hardships that were had

Chorus
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat Chorus)

God I never again will go down under ground

Miners under 24 hour observation, will be united with families at the hospital.

Thank you to all coal and petroleum workers that let me sit here in my air conditioned house while you risk your lives everyday. God bless you.

To repeat what others have said, great job with the pix 2nite, Ace. Call me old-fashioned, but I like the stills better than the live feeds on TV. This live thread with the almost immediate TV captures combines the best elements of television and newspaper coverage.

Nice short speech to the rescue crews from the governor. Talked about teamwork, skill, savvy, determination.

And may I add that once again the average American workers are the heroes in this drama, just like 9/11. There is great heroism in this country, and I believe it is beginning to be seen.

To #958. I agree with you about the slow start FOX had. They should have bumped Cavuto. But CNN had some technical problems too. Fox did do a lot better as time went on. Try doing extemporaneous talking head stuff for hours on end like Geraldo and Rick did. Not easy. Also, Geraldo was very much in patriotic mode tonite, making tons of comments of how this would be a morale booster for the country, etc. Geraldo ain't poifect, but he still chose to go to FOX to work, so he ain't dumb.
