The L & N Don't Stop Here Anymore Sözleri

When I was a curly headed baby

My daddy sat me down upon his knee

He said, "Boy, you go to school and learn your letters

Don't you be a dirty miner like me"

I was born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard Hollow

Coal cars rambled past my door

Now they're standin' in a rusty row all empty

And the L & N

Don't stop here anymore

I used to think my daddy was a black man

With script enough to buy the company store

Now he goes downtown with empty pockets

And his face is white as a February snow

I was born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard Hollow

Coal cars rambled past my door

Now they're standin' in a rusty row all empty

And the L & N

Don't stop here anymore

Last night I dreamed I went down to the coal yard

To draw my pay like I always did before

But them ol' kudzu vines were comin' through the window

And the leaves and grass were growin' through the floor

I was born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard Hollow

Coal cars rambled past my door

Now they're standin' in a rusty row all empty

And the L & N

Don't stop here anymore
