Grateful Dead – Beat on down the line 1972

Well this job Ive got is a little too hard,
Running out of money, lord, I need more pay.
Gonna wake up in the morning lord, gonna pack my bags,
Im gonna beat it on down the line.

Goin down the line, goin down the line,
Goin down the line, goin down the line,
Goin down the line, goin down the line,
Goin down the line, goin down the line,
Goin down the line, goin down the line,
Goin down the line, goin down the line,
Beat it on down the line.

Yes Ill be waiting at the station lord,
when that train pulls on by,
Im going back where I belong.
Im going back to that same old used-to-be,
Down in joe browns coal mine.

Coal mine, coal mine, coal mine, coal mine.
Coal mine, coal mine, coal mine, coal mine.
Coal mine, coal mine, coal mine, coal mine.
Down in joe browns coal mine.

(Instrumental)

Yeah, Im goin back to that shack way across that railroad track,
Ah hah, thats where I think I belong
Got a sweet woman, Lord, and she’s waiting there for me
And thats where Im gonna make my happy home.

Happy home, happy home, happy home, happy home.
Happy home, happy home, happy home, happy home.
Happy home, happy home, happy home, happy home.
Thats where Im gonna make my happy home.
