Marietta Miner Songtext
von Tim Hus

Out here on the great plains there′s an ocean of wheat
And the grain pull elevators are the highest thing you'll see
Way out on the harvest the sun is shining down
No one thinks of me way down underground

Doing time in a potash mine
There ain′t no sun in Saskatchewan
Ain't no sun and there ain't no light at all
I′ve been asked many times before
What do they use potash for
I′m a Murrieta miner to the core

Analyzer, fertilizer, I don't wanna idolize her
Muckhound makes the meters split away
Catacombs go on and on
It′s hot down here the whole year long
Room and pillar mining all the way


Doing time in a potash mine
There ain't no sun in Saskatchewan
Ain′t no sun and there ain't no light at all
I′ve been asked many times before
What do they use potash for
I'm a Murrieta miner to the core

I don't even have a past
I was here when they sunk this shaft
I didn′t come, I′ve been here all along
I don't know, it ain′t my fault
I just like the taste of salt
And I'm all made right from potassium

Doing time in a potash mine
There ain′t no sun in Saskatchewan
Ain't no sun and there ain′t no light at all
I've been asked many times before
What do they use potash for
I'm a Murrieta miner to the core

I′m a Murrieta miner, that′s for sure
