lyrics

In the deep dark hills of Kentucky
that´s where I trace my blood
there on a hillside gravestone
my whole story is written down
“You won´t ever leave Harlam, at least not on your feet”.

Oh, my granddad walked Harlam mountains
and asked granny to become his bride
said “I´ll walk you out this holler,
there ain´t much hope in here for us”
but they would never leave Harlam, they would not leave alive.

I guessed no worth in them, mountains
´till a man from Northeast arrived
waving hundred dollar bills
said “I´ll pay ya if you dig my coal”
but you would never leave Harlam, at least not on your feet.

From the sunrise about ten in the morning
´till it goes down about three in the day
you fill your cup with your strongest bitter brew
and dig coal from the bottom of your grave
“You would never leave Harlam, at least not on your feet”.

(Darrell Scott tribute)
