Coal Miner's Daughter
Well, I was born a coal minerґs daughter In a cabin on a hill in Butcher Holler We were poor, but we had love Thatґs the one thing that daddy made sure of He shoveled coal to make a poor manґs dollar
My daddy worked all night in the Vanleer coal mine All day long in the field a-hoinґ corn Mommy rocked the babies at night And read the Bible by the coal oil light And everґthing would start all over come break of mornґ
Daddy loved and raised eight kids on a minerґs pay Mommy scrubbed our clothes on a washboard everґ day Why Iґve seen her fingers bleed To complain there was no need Sheґd smile in Mommyґs understanding way
In the summertime we didnґt have shoes to wear But in the wintertime weґd all get a brand new pair )From a mail order catalog Money made from sellinґ a hog Daddy always managed to get the money somewhere
Yeah! Iґm proud to be a coal minerґs daughter I remember well, the well where I drew water The work we done was hard At night weґd sleep ґcause we were tired I never thought of ever leaving Butcher Holler
Well alot of things have changed since way back then And itґs so good to be back home again Not much left but the floor Nothing lives here anymore Except the memґries of a coal minerґs daughter
