Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: When the Breaker Starts Up Full Time
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Coal Mine Song
There is one from the hard-coal region of Pennsylvania called 'When the breaker starts up full time'. It begins:

Me troubles are over Mrs Murphy
For the Ditchman next door told me straight
That the breaker starts full time on Monday
That's what he told me at any rate

If it is the song you are after, I can supply the lyrics.
