Telling Sue lyrics

I was workin real hard in a gravel yard
when I came across a silver coin
you know it wasn t that much but I tried my luck because I d had enough of being employed

Mama mama don t worry long for me
I m a man and I must find my way
mama mama can you tell Sue for me
If I stayed here I d die in a working man s grave

Well I was dead flat broke and that wasn t no joke
cause I was swimming in a pile of debt
but I have to admit that when I up and quit
I pulled an iron shackle from my neck

Well it s been some years and I ve grown a beard
and I ve taken to the life I lead
When I think of the past the thinkin doesn t last
I have everything I ever need

When I turned to leave I heard the pit boss scream
"Son you know you ll never return"
Well I didn t say a word I just flipped him the bird
and that s the last of me that he saw
