Paradise - The Everly Brothers (艾佛利兄弟)[00:00:00]

When I was a child my family would travel[00:00:14]

Down to western kentucky[00:00:17]

Where my parents were born[00:00:19]

And there's a backward old town[00:00:25]

That I often remember[00:00:26]

So many times that my memories are worn[00:00:29]

And daddy won't you take me back[00:00:37]

To Muhlenberg County[00:00:39]

Down by the Green River where Paradise lay[00:00:41]

Well I'm sorry my son[00:00:45]

But you're too late in asking[00:00:47]

Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away[00:00:49]

Well sometimes we'd travel right down the green river[00:00:57]

To the abandoned old prison down by Adrie Hill[00:01:01]

Where the air smelled like snakes[00:01:08]

And we'd shoot with our pistols[00:01:10]

But empty pop bottles was all we would kill[00:01:12]

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County[00:01:20]

Down by the green river where Paradise lay[00:01:24]

Well I'm sorry my son[00:01:28]

But you're too late in asking[00:01:30]

Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away[00:01:32]

Then the coal company came with the world's largest shovel[00:01:58]

And they tortured the timber and stripped all our land[00:02:02]

Well they dug for their coal till the land was forsaken[00:02:09]

Then they wrote it all down as the progress of man[00:02:13]

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County[00:02:20]

Down by the green river where Paradise lay[00:02:24]

Well I'm sorry my son[00:02:29]

But you're too late in asking[00:02:30]

Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away[00:02:33]

When I die let my ashes float down the green river[00:02:40]

Let my soul roll on up to the rochester dam[00:02:44]

I'll be halfway to heaven with paradise waitin'[00:02:51]

Just five miles away from wherever I am[00:02:55]

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County[00:03:02]

Down by the green river where Paradise lay[00:03:06]

Well I'm sorry my son[00:03:10]

But you're too late in asking[00:03:11]

Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away[00:03:14]

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County[00:03:26]
