New Riders of the Purple Sage – Dirty Business Lyrics
Artist: New Riders of the Purple Sage
Song: Dirty Business
Well, the marshal came to town
And his hat was pulled way down
He looked like he had business on his mind
He didn’t stop to say
He just rode along his way
‘Til he stopped in at the office of the mine
Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
This morning
Vince Staples “When Sparks Fly’ Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified
Well, I make two bucks a day
And that ain’t a healthy pay
My kids are just beginning to get sick
There’s talk been going ’round
How they’re gonna shut it down
If the man don’t come and fix things pretty quick
Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek this morning
Pretty soon there was a crowd
It was getting pretty loud
And the men all said there’d be no work today
But the owner wouldn’t budge
He just sat there like a judge
And he wouldn’t give a nickel more in pay
Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek this morning
Just then they heard the sound
That rumbled from the ground
And everyone went rushing for the door
The dust came pouring out
And it finally left no doubt
That the mine was not at issue anymore
Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek this morning
Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek this morning
“And now, House of Wax”
“Oh boy”
“Thank you”
