Chaka Khan
Haulin' Coal

Steamin' down the muddy waters
Travelin' yonder from bay to bay
I been workin' on the barge line
Fourteen years ago today
Eighteen hours hard labor by the day
Ain't much pay for a man

Chorus:
Haulin' coal down the down river
And he won't be comin' home for a long time

Torches burning by the riverside
Cast their shadows grey as stone
And the cool october days replacing
Much warmer thoughts of home
I can still see grandma sittin' on the porch
Tellin' the neighbors she's got a grandson

Chorus:
Haulin' coal down the down river
And he won't be comin' home for a long time

River's rising up the marker line
While the willows softly moan
Sun is rising over the starboard shore
Paving the golden road back home

I can still see the kids jumpin' rope
But there ain't much hope for a man

Chorus:
Haulin' coal down the down river
And he won't be comin' home for a long time

Haulin' coal down the down river
I'll be gone a long time

Haulin' coal down the down river
I'll be gone a long while


Mirror lyrics:

I'll be gone a long while
Haulin' coal down the down river

I'll be gone a long time
Haulin' coal down the down river

And he won't be comin' home for a long time
Haulin' coal down the down river
Chorus:

But there ain't much hope for a man
I can still see the kids jumpin' rope

Paving the golden road back home
Sun is rising over the starboard shore
While the willows softly moan
River's rising up the marker line

And he won't be comin' home for a long time
Haulin' coal down the down river
Chorus:

Tellin' the neighbors she's got a grandson
I can still see grandma sittin' on the porch
Much warmer thoughts of home
And the cool october days replacing
Cast their shadows grey as stone
Torches burning by the riverside

And he won't be comin' home for a long time
Haulin' coal down the down river
Chorus:

Ain't much pay for a man
Eighteen hours hard labor by the day
Fourteen years ago today
I been workin' on the barge line
Travelin' yonder from bay to bay
Steamin' down the muddy waters
