Now without coal there is no mountains; and there is no electricity for us, but it just reminds me of God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost. You see without them three presented we would be nothing here on earth like our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ he died and sacrificed his life for everybody. Just look at these beautiful mountains; they are so beautiful and we love them, and we love to be around them so when you go on top of the mountain; you look up at the sky, at the world; just remind yourself that you're a superstar like me because God is our Lord (Poncho and Andy) Chorus: (0:01:24 – 0:01:50) I could play the background/Coal keeps the lights on I could play the background/Coal keeps the lights on Cause I know sometimes I get in the way/without coal there is no mountains So won't You take the lead, lead, lead?
