    Ich als ehemaliger Steinkohle Bermann bin froh, wenn ich hier solche Songs finde.
    Glückauf

      Und ich als Enkel eines Bergmanns. Leider gibt es kein deutsches Lied - oder ich kenne es nicht - das diese Arbeit so schön verewigt hat wie das hier von Merle Travis.

    My parents had this and sixteen tons on record back in the sixties. I liked listening to them, but made me sad also because my dad was a coal miner.

    "It's a many a man I have known in my day, who lived just to labor his whole life away." The lamentation of every man who has experienced a life of tough manual labor with other men. There's a pure and honest form of pride however when you finish a difficult job and make it out alive...

    The audio interference near the end makes it sound so weirdly good

      I heard he was accused of being a communist sympathizer because of this song.

      ​@@curtgottler9961 Corporatists have always been fear mongering people who even slightly question the establishment. It was because he wrote songs for the people about the people. He was no communist.
