Sweet Carrie

A E D A E A A Hard work, low pay, tired aching back E Earning by the sweat on my brow D A 12 full hours in this manmade hole E A Doin' what they taught me how D A I'm a spike drivin' railway son-of-a-gun E Working on the southern line D A 14 miles through this mountainside E A Working with sweet Carrie on my mind A E D A E A A The boss man's mean he's full of hate E Livin' on the workers sweat D A The steaks he eats keeps him good and fat E A Soup beans is all we get D A I'm a spike drivin' railway son-of-a-gun E Working on the southern line D A 14 miles through this mountainside E A Working with sweet Carrie on my mind A E D A E A A From daylight to dark we work in the tunnel E Scared of a bad cave-in D A Ain't got enough eat to or money to buy with E A No insurance for our kin D A I'm a spike drivin' railway son-of-a-gun E Working on the southern line D A 14 miles through this mountainside E A Working with sweet Carrie on my mind A E D A E A D A I'm a spike drivin' railway son-of-a-gun E Working on the southern line D A 14 miles through this mountainside E A Working with sweet Carrie on my mind E A Working with sweet Carrie on my mind E D A Working with sweet Carrie on my mind
