Intro

Verse

Hey hey hey hey There'll be food on the table tonight

Hey hey hey hey There'll be pay in your pocket tonight

My gut is wrenched out it is crunched up and broken

 My life that is lived is no more than token

 Who'll strike the flint up on the stone and tell me why

If I yell out at night there's a reply of blue silence

 The Screen is no comfort I can't speak my sentence

 They blew the lights at heaven's gate and I don't know why

Chorus

But if I work all day on the blue sky mine

There'll be food on the table to night

Still I walk up and down on the blue sky mine

There'lll be pay in your pocket tonight

Verse

The candy store pauupers lie to share holders

 They're crossing their fingers they pay the truth makers

The balance sheet is breaking up the sky

So I'm caught at junction still waiting for medicine

 The sweat of my brow keeps on feeding the engine

 Hope the crumbs in my pcket can keep me for another night

Bridge

And if the blue sky mining company won't come to my rescue

If the sugar refinning company won't save me

Who's gonna save me

Who's gonna save me

Who's gonna save me

Chorus

But if I work all day on the blue sky mine

There'll be food on the table to night

And is I walk up and down on the blue sky mine

There'll be pay in your pocket tonight

And some have sailed from a distant shore

And the company takes what the company wants

 And nothing as precious as the hole in the ground

Solo

Who's gonna save me

Who's gonna save me

I pray that sense and reason

Who's gonna save me

Who's gonna save me

We go nothing to fear

In the end the rain comes down

In the end the rain comes down

Washes clean the streets of the blue sky town
