Miner's Prayer Is Dedicated to the Memory of Luther Tibbs.
A Kentucky Coal Miner For 40 Years, and My Grandpa.
When the Whistle Blows Each Morning
And I Walk Down in That Cold, Dark Mine
I Say a Prayer to My Dear Savior
Please Let Me See the Sunshine One More Time
Chorus:
When Oh When Will It Be Over
When Will I Lay These Burdens Down
And When I Die, Dear Lord in Heaven
Please Take My Soul From 'neath That Cold Dark Ground
I Still Grieve For My Poor Brother
And I Still Hear My Dear Old Mother Cry
When Late That Night They Came and Told Her
He'd Lost His Life Down in the Big Shoal Mine
Chorus:
When Oh When Will It Be Over
When Will I Lay These Burdens Down
And When I Die, Dear Lord in Heaven
Please Take My Soul From 'neath That Cold Dark Ground
I Have no Shame, I Feel no Sorrow
If On This Earth Not Much I Own
I Have the Love of My Sweet Children
An Old Plow Mule, a Shovel and a Hoe
Chorus:
When Oh When Will It Be Over
When Will I Lay These Burdens Down
And When I Die, Dear Lord in Heaven
Please Take My Soul From 'neath That Cold Dark Ground
Yeah, When I Die, Dear Lord in Heaven
Please Take My Soul From 'neath That Cold Dark Ground
