Lyrics Blue Sky Mine

Hey, hey, hey, hey

There'll be food on the table tonight

Hey, hey, hey

There'll be pay in your pocket tonight

My gut is wrenched out it is crunched up and broken

My life that is lived is no more than a token

Who'll strike the flint upon the stone and tell me why?

If I yell out at night there's a reply of blue silence

The screen is no comfort

I can't speak my sentence

They blew the lights at heaven's gate and I don't know why

But if I work all day on the blue sky mine

There'll be food on the table tonight

Still I walk up and down on the blue sky mine

There'll be pay in your pocket tonight

The candy store paupers lie to the shareholders

They're crossing their fingers they pay the truth makers

The balance sheet

Breaking up the sky is breaking up the sky

So I'm caught at the junction still waiting for medicine

The sweat of my brow keeps on feeding the engine

Hope the crumbs in my pocket

Crumbs in my pocket can keep me for another night can keep me for another night

And if the blue sky mining company won't come to my rescue

Come to my rescue

If the sugar refining company won't save me

Who's gonna save me?

But if I work all day on the blue sky mine

There'll be food on the table tonight

And if I walk up and down on the blue sky mine

There'll be pay in your pocket tonight

And some have sailed from a distant shore

And the company takes what the company wants

And nothing's as precious as a hole in the ground

Ground

Who's gonna save me?

I pray that sense and reason brings us in

Who's gonna save me?

We got nothing to fear in the end the rain comes down in the end the rain comes down

Washes clean the streets of the blue sky town
