There'll be food on the table tonight
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 a token
Who'll strike the flint upon 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

But if I work all day on the Blue Sky Mine
(There'll be food on the table tonight)
Still I walk up and down on the Blue Sky Mine
(There'll be pay in your pocket tonight)

The candy store paupers lie to the shareholders
They're crossing their fingers; they pay the truth makers
The balance sheet is breaking up the sky

So I'm caught at the junction still waiting for medicine
The sweat of my brow keeps on feeding the engine
Hope the crumbs in my pocket can keep me for another night

And if the Blue Sky Mine Company won't come to my rescue
If the sugar refining company won't save me
Who's gonna save me?

But if ...

And some have sailed from a distant shore
And the company takes what the company want
And nothing's as precious as the hole in the ground

Who's gonna save me?
I pray to sense and reason
Who's gonna save me?
We got nothing xxxxxxxxxxxxx

In the end the rain comes down
Washes clean the streets of the Blue Sky town
