Lyrics
Just waking up in the morning, in the new world. I'll honest with ya, I just wanna ex-plore, And when I think about it, makes me wanna do more So let's get down to it: mine ore. The creatures of the night just wanna see me fail, Yeah right, they're better off trying to freeze hell. Some of us play for the thrill ride, And others play just to build high.

But I do it for the blocks most people only dream of, Every time I fall it's only making my pick strong. <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">And I'll be in the mine with my pick, baby, til the end <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">or til you hear the sound of my tool breaking.

<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Until Herobrine cast's his spell <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">that'll send you to the depths of hell. <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Until you spawn at home, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">What you gonna do now?

<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Chorus <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">- <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Take my pick, and my sword, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Gonna search un-til im bored. <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Give me coal, dig this hole, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">That's when it came to me, suddenly, amazingly, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">I am a miner! (Oh!) <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">I am a miner! (Ey!) <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Here comes the miner! (Oh!) <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">And that's when it came to me, suddenly, amazingly, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">I am a miner. <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">---

<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">And if I can last with mobs around, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">There's no reason you should ever have your health down. <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Two blocks high, and my skin is kinda' brown, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Hailing from the bedrock, 60 blocks below the ground.

<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">And the sun is going down. I need to get in somewhere fast. <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">And now I'm yelling "Where's my pick at?!" <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">It's gonna take a couple left clicks, and my right hand, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">For the mobs to see I'm not the one who's got it bad.

<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Until Herobrine cast's his spell, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">that'll send you to the depths of hell. <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Until you spawn in at home, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">What we gonna do now?

<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">-- <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Chorus <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">--

<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">If you fall pick yourself up off the floor, (get up) <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">And when your armor can't take no more, (c'mon) <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Just remember what you mine for, <span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:17px;">Cause I know I'm for sure!
