T-Bone Burnett - Johnny Cash: Forever Words Expanded

Jellico Coal Man

I've got a little black ring around my neck
And I will sell you coal by the bushel or the keck
I will sell you coal by the gallon or the pound
And you don't have to look for me
I'll be around

Yelling Jellico coal man, Jellico coal man
Jellico coal man, coal, coal, coal

There is coal that's soft and coal that's hard
I will bring it around to your back yard
I'll have chocolate cake and apple pie
I believe I will have a piece when I come by

I'm the Jellico coal man, Jellico coal man
Jellico coal man, coal, coal, coal

It comes direct from the Jellico mine
It'll warm your baby in the winter time
When the sun comes up, that's the time I start
You will see my coming with my two wheel cart

Yelling Jellico coal man, Jellico coal man
Jellico coal man, coal, coal, coal
Jellico coal man, I'm the Jellico coal man
Jellico coal man, coal, coal, coal
Coal, coal, coal
Coal, coal, coal
