  Trapped  in a mine  that had  caved in
 
  And everyone knows the only ones left
 
  Were Joe and me and Tim
  When they broke through to pull us free
  The only ones left to tell the tale
  Were Joe and me
  Timothy, Timothy, where  on earth did you go?
  Timothy, Timothy, God  why don't I know?
  Hungry as hell no food to eat
  And Joe said that he would sell his soul
  For just a piece of meat
  Water enough to drink for two
  And Joe said to me, "I'll have a swig
  And then there's some for you."
  Timothy, Timothy, Joe was looking at you
  Timothy, Timothy, God what did we do?
  I must have blacked out just around then
  'Cause the very next thing that I could see
  Was the light of the day again
  My stomach was full as it could be
  And nobody ever got around
  To finding Timothy
 
  Timothy...
