I tell my troubles to the coalman
He`s a coalman but he understands
He`s not such a very very old man
He`s a soul man and he takes my hand
He makes a man feel good when he`s down
Head is touching the ground
He`s going to help you if he can
He`s a coalman
I`ve been waiting for the coalman
He`s a whole man and he treats me nice
Ev`rybody needs a coalman
When you`re low man , you can get advice
He makes a man feel good when he`s down
Head is touching the ground
He`s going to help you if he can
He`s a coalman
I need her loving so much the feeling is too much to bear
You`ve got to have somebody, when she`s not there
I tell my troubles to the coalman
He`s a coalman but he understands
He`s not such a very very old man
He`s a soul man and he takes my hand
He makes a man feel good when he`s down
Head is touching the ground
He`s going to help you if he can
He`s a coalman
I need her loving so much the feeling is too much to bear
You`ve got to have somebody when she`s not there
I tell my troubles to the coalman
He`s a coalman but he understands
He`s not such a very very old man
He`s a soul man and he takes my hand
He`s gonna help you when he`s down
When your head is touching the ground
And he`ll help you if he can
He`s a coalman
