    This country was built with calloused hands and dirty shoes, and a man should be measured by such.... Some people forget abut the working man/woman....but we are the one's who keep this country going.... nice to hear a song that makes people remember that... hope some folks will wise up.. keep writing songs you and we can relate to, people like to be proud of what they and their family's have done and continue to do...

    I'm from Beattyville, and this song touches a place deep inside. While not being from a mining family, my family is full of truck drivers who have hauled coal for years. Coal is our lifeline and it's hard life. This song encapsulates that so well and what exactly coal means to our communities. Thank you for sharing this video.

    awesome song... i'm a miner and have been for 15 years. and to be honest I shed a tear just about every time at the line about the sundress on my baby girl. I have 3 baby girls and they are the reason I mine that old coal 6 days a week. if this isn't jimmy tell him I said well done and thanks for the song and his service in the military.

    As a former Potash Miner in New Mexico I must say many will never appreciate the hell us Miners go through to produce a product that affects their everyday lives..... I now work at a Power Plant and have an appreciation for what it takes for the many tons of coal used daily to produce another daily necessity, electricity. This song you wrote touches home to me in many ways... I feel privileged, one for your service to our Country and secondly to have heard this heart felt song...

Keep up the good work your sound is amazing and inspiring.

    Solid country gold. Needs a third verse and it would be one if the greatest country songs ever. Gotta mention momma and trains in the third verse though. It's still the best damn song I've ever heard. Just wish jimmy would have sung some cost of livings high on AGT so he could've won that damn thang. Anyone who writes song like the coal song should get something big on payday. I still don't understand why it never was on the radio. Oh yeah, didn't mention mama or trains.

    Would be great to see Jimmy play the Coal Festival in Southern Ohio next September. Nothing is more truer about coal especially for that area. It has fallen into the small town grave yard since all the mines have been closing over the past 20 years. The people of the area still celebrate what the coal industry once meant to the region.
