lyrics

Headed to the borderline
Crossing the river to cut my ties
Left my whole family behind
I was born a sacrifice

Headed to the borderline
Going out west to change my life
I heard they got work in the mines
Where the days are dark as night
Days are dark as night oh yeah

An army of invincible mind
I’m going down in the tunnels in a picket line
My eyes don’t remember the light
We gone get buried alive, we gone get buried alive yeah

In the light light oh
Buried alive oh ho
Come on
In the light light oh
Buried alive oooooohhh

Huh

Calloused hands never learned to write
I left my and child for dynamite
It’s high time we unionize
My rights feel paralyzed
My rights feel paralyzed

Paralyzed ah oh
Paralyzed ah oh
Come on
Paralyzed ah oh
Paralyzed yeah

On the mountain
On the mountain
On the mountain
On the mountain
On the mountain
On the mountain
On the mountain
On the mountain yeah

Uh oh
Well oh yeah

Imma find that man on the mountain
Shoot him down on the mountain
His blood will flow like a fountain
Like a fountain, like a fountain
