paroles de chanson Dirty Business (Live) - New Riders of the Purple Sage

Well, the marshal came to town
And his hat was pulled way down
He looked like he had business on his mind
He didn't stop to say
He just rode along his way
'Til he stopped in at the office of the mine

Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
This morning

Well, I make two bucks a day
And that ain't a healthy pay
My kids are only just beginning to get sick
There's talk been going around
How they're gonna shut it down
If the man don't come and fix things pretty damn quick

Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
This morning

Well pretty soon there was a crowd
It was getting pretty loud
And the men all said there'd be no work today
Now, but the owner wouldn't budge
He sat there like some kind of judge
And he wouldn't give a nickel more in pay

Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
This morning
