This is a song I wrote to showcase and celebrate the lives of coal miners everywhere. Although this song was written for coal miners both past and present, it is especially dedicated to the life and memory Eric Legg.
This song is awesome thanks bubba! I’m a third generation miner everyone before me were coal miners. The mine up here in east central Ohio shut down before I was old enough to go under. I’m a mechanic in an underground limestone mine now. God bless yall

Spent 15 years mining coal. I did not quit the mine the mine quit me. Hay American after you shut down all the coal fired power stations and we run out of natural gas just sit in the dark.
