Dirty Business New Riders of the Purple Sage

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
This morning

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Dirty business, dirty business
Dirty business down in Coal Creek
Dirty business down in Coal Creek this morning
