[Verse 1]
D A
My daddy was a miner, my daddy's daddy too
A D
Union, God, and country is all they ever knew
D
They worked from early mornin’
A
till the evenin' whistle blew
A
When it'd strike the mine they'd walk the line
D
'Cause that's just what ya do
D
When you're born in West Virginia
A
A miner through and through
A D
Union, God, and country was all you ever knew
[Chorus]
D
Union, God, and country
A
West Virginia, gold and blue
A
Union, God, and country
D
Was all we ever knew

[Verse 2]
D A
Before there was a union the company was king
A
You'd work your fingers to the bone
D
Couldn't show a thing
D
You shifted coal till Friday
A
Drew your pay and then
A
You'd walk down to the company store
D
And give it back again
D
That's why they made the union
A
They had nothin' left to lose
A
Union, God, and country
D
Was all they ever knew
[Chorus]
D
It was union, God, and country
A
West Virginia, gold and blue
A
Union, God, and country
D
Was all we ever knew
