They dug Joe Harding out of the ground
Exhumed his bones and uranium found
Paducah, Kentucky's nuke factory..
Radioactive in the cemetery.

18 years of uranium dust
caked on his skin on his teeth formed a crust
Cancer in his stomach, perforated his lungs
All of the workers are dying too young

He spoke to the bosses of uranium air
The Feds denied any poisons were there
Union Carbide, Lockheed-Martin agree
That it's safe to make nuclear WMDs

They dug Joe Harding out of the ground
Exhumed his bones and uranium found
Paducah, Kentucky's nuke factory
Radioactive in the cemetery.

Their bodies were sick with plutonium grams
The Feds said was from eating that Kentucky ham
Fernald, Ohio, Oak Ridge, Tennessee,
All getting sick on ham from Kentucky

They dug Joe Harding out of the ground
Exhumed his bones and uranium found
Paducah, Kentucky's nuke factory..
Radioactive in the cemetery.

Bill Richardson came to honor the dead
To Paducah, Kentucky, Mr Energy said
To the dead and the dying he gave an award
Called 'em Heroes Of The Cold War.

They dug Joe Harding out of the ground
Exhumed his bones and uranium found
Not Kentucky ham that was deep in his core
He's a Hero of the cold war.

They dug Joe Harding out of the ground
Exhumed his bones and uranium found
Paducah, Kentucky's nuke factory
Radioactive in the cemetery.
