Steve Earle[00:00:02]
The name she gave was Caroline[00:00:06]
The daughter of a miner[00:00:15]
And her ways were free and it seemed to me[00:00:19]
The sunshine walked beside her[00:00:27]
Come She from Spencer 'coss the hill[00:00:38]
She said her Pa had sent her[00:00:47]
'Cause the coal was low and soon the snow[00:00:52]
Would tuwn the skies to winter[00:01:00]
Well she she'd said come to look for work[00:01:10]
She was not seeking favors[00:01:19]
For a dime a day and a place to stay[00:01:24]
She'd turn those hands to labor[00:01:32]
The times were hard the jobs were few[00:01:42]
All through Tecumseh Valley[00:01:51]
But she asked around and a job she found[00:01:56]
Tending bar for Gypsy Sally[00:02:04]
She saved enough to get back home[00:02:47]
Spring When replaced the winter[00:02:55]
But her dreams were denied her Pa had died[00:03:00]
The word came down from Spencer[00:03:08]
She turned to whorin' out on the streets[00:03:19]
With all the lust inside her[00:03:27]
It was many a man returned again[00:03:32]
To lay himself beside her[00:03:40]
They Well found her down beneath the stairs[00:03:50]
That led to Gypsy Sally's[00:03:59]
In her hand when she died[00:04:03]
Was a note that cried[00:04:07]
Fare thee well Tecumseh Valley[00:04:11]
