Unknown - Pay Day At Coal Creek Lyrics

Pay Day At Coal Creek

Pay day, pay day, oh, pay day.
Pay day at Coal Creek no more.
Pay day at Coal Creek no more.

Bye-bye, bye-bye, oh, bye-bye,
Bye-bye, my woman, l'm gone, (2x)

You'll miss me' you'll miss me, you'll miss me'
You'll miss me when I'm gone' (2x)

I'm a poor boy, I'm a poor boy, I'm a poor boy,
l'm a poor boy and a long ways from home. (2x)

He's a rider, he's a rider, he's a rider.
Oh, he's a rider, but he'll leave that rail some time.
He's a rider but he'll leave that rail some time.
