Lyrics Soul Mine - Average White Band

Working in a soul mine, ah, yeah
Working in a soul mine
Working in a soul mine
Working in a soul mine

You make me work, you just love to see me sweat
The hotter baby, the rougher that it gets
You′re a heart stopper, you must be made of stone
Sometimes, I swear, I wish you'd leave me alone

It′s like working in a soul mine
I just can't work no harder
Working in a soul mine
'Til the day is done
Working in a soul mine
I just can′t work no harder

Working in a soul mine, can I have some fun?
Yeah, you make it seem you′re having fun when I hurt
I'm like a dog, I′m just digging in the dirt, ooh
Sometimes I think you don't know what you′re doing to me
I'm back on my knees, got a mind to set me free

It′s like working in a soul mine
I just can't work no harder
Working in a soul mine
'Til the day is done

It′s like working in a soul mine
I just can′t work no harder
Working in a soul mine, wait, can I have some fun? All right

Working in a soul mine (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh yeah, baby)
Working in a soul mine

Believe me, baby, I don't wanna be this way
You bring me trouble girl, what more can I say?
Give me soul, blood and roll my fingers to the bone
Give me back my soul, babe, I wanna take my spirit home

Now I′m working in a soul mine
I just can't work no harder
Working in a soul mine
′Til the day is done, yeah

It's like working in a soul mine
I just can′t work no harder
Working in a soul mine, I gotta have my fun

(Go, Roger, let me hear ya)

It's like working in a soul mine
I just can't work no harder
Working in a soul mine
′Til the day is done

It′s like working in a soul mine, oh
I just can't work no harder
Working in a soul mine
Wait, can I have my fun? Tell me if I can

Working in a soul mine, oh
I just can′t work no harder
Working in a soul mine (no, no)
'Til the day is done, yeah, ooh

Working in a soul mine
I just can′t work no harder, no
Working in a soul mine
Oh, babe, I gotta have some fun now

Working in a soul mine (ah)
Working in a soul mine (ooh, working hard, no, working hard now)
Working in a soul mine
I just can't work no harder
Working in a soul mine
Working in a soul mine
Working in a soul mine
