I'll make no excuses I'll find heaven below the ground
I'll make no excuses I'll find heaven below the ground
I'm an anthracite man and it's me who heats this town
There ain't a saloon in town that can quench my thirst
There ain't a saloon in town that can quench my thirst
If you're gonna run with me I'm gonna get there first
Well I've roamed all around this valley
laid my head in many a patch
and I've learned one thing in all my days
there's good times where I'm at
There ain't a man alive who can fill more cars than me
There ain't a man alive who can fill more cars than me
and them God fearing woman they won't leave me be
