Rev Hammer — Shuttin' the Ole Dirt Down lyrics

Lyrics

Send me the cuttings from the paper,
Pass me the tonic from the shelf,
A hundred views of mining towns
Where they’re shuttin' all the ole dirt down.
There will be no red 'n' green world,
They’re shuttin' the ole dirt down.
This is the last remaining weapon,
Find me something left to re-invest.
Who’d have thought we’d bless these days
Of the midnight shift and sulphur haze?
This Is the two-faced coin of fortune,
A twisted politicians' sort of tale.
Where government and industry
Abandon whole communities
