DO SOL RE MIm
Sky was black, Lord, rain came pouring down
DO SOL RE LAm
Number 12 bus shuffling down Shaw Road way
DO SOL RE MIm
Mules keep spinning, black-faced lifers peck the ground
DO SOL RE LAm
Sun comes up like lightning over Tandle Hills grey
Ch.
SOL LAm
We are mill boys, stuck on the hill boys
DO FA SOL
Stuck in the mill boys, 'till our dying day
Ch. on Poor Boy Blues (Solo)
DO SOL RE MIm
Cotton mill will get you, boy, she'll take you to your grave
DO SOL RE LAm
Tell you boy to use your head, apprentice out your days
DO SOL RE MIm
You'll end up in nothing, boy, with cotton as your trade
DO SOL RE LAm
Sun comes up like lightning over Tandle Hills grey
Ch. *2
DO SOL
It's easy to see a poor boy's blues
LAm SOL
When he's working every day
DO SOL
It's harder to be there in his shoes
LAm SOL
He was born to be that way
