Blue Eyed Sally

(album: Probably Wrong - 2017)

Drill bits, they keep on turning
This job ain't worth the earning
Dark as hell and my lungs are burning
And what's a man to do
It's like being stabbed in the side with a switchblade knife in a barroom fight
Spending days thinking bout' the nights
And being next to you

I wanna see my Blue Eyed Sally
Headed down to the union rally
Show the boss who's the boss of who
5 O'clock and the whistle's blowing
It feels so good just knowing
When I get home I'll be lying next to you
When I get home I'll be lying next to you

Every day the coal car rumbles
Every step just another stumble
I try to think my thoughts get jumbled
And what's a man to do
It's like trying to take flight but I'm underground in the constant night
Things'll never look too bright just a darker shade of blue

I wanna see my Blue Eyed Sally
Headed down to the union rally
Show the boss who's the boss of who
5 O'clock and the whistle's blowing
It feels so good just knowing
When I get home I'll be lying next to you
Oh babe, when I get home ill be lying next to you

Stand still
The days keep leaving
Never had much to believe in
Money ain't all that they're stealing
And what's a man to do
No one here to take my side
I think of you to feel alright
I know I'll never see that light but I do it all for you

I wanna see my Blue Eyed Sally
Headed down to the union rally
Show the boss who's the boss of who
5 O'clock and the whistle's blowing
It feels so good just knowing
When I get home I'll be lying next to you
When I get home I'll be lying next to you
When I get home I'll be lying next to you
