Paradise - John Denver (约翰·丹佛)[00:00:00]

Written by：John Prine[00:00:01]

When I was a child my family would travel[00:00:04]

Down to western Kentucky where my parents were born[00:00:07]

There's a backwards old town that's often remembered[00:00:12]

So many times that my mem'ries are worn[00:00:17]

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County[00:00:21]

Down by the Green River where Paradise lay[00:00:25]

Well I'm sorry my son but you're too late in asking[00:00:30]

Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away[00:00:34]

Well sometimes we'd travel right down the Green River[00:00:39]

To the abandoned old prison down by Adrie Hill[00:00:43]

Where the air smelled like snakes and we'd shoot with our pistols[00:00:48]

But empty pop bottles was all we would kill[00:00:52]

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County[00:00:57]

Down by the Green River where Paradise lay[00:01:01]

Well I'm sorry my son but you're too late in asking[00:01:05]

Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away[00:01:09]

The coal company came with the world's largest shovel[00:01:15]

And they tortured the timber and stripped all the land[00:01:18]

Well they dug for their coal till the land was forsaken[00:01:24]

They wrote it all down as the progress of man[00:01:28]

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County[00:01:32]

Down by the Green River where Paradise lay[00:01:35]

Well I'm sorry my son but you're too late in asking[00:01:40]

Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away[00:01:44]

And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County[00:01:50]

Down by the Green River where Paradise lay[00:01:53]

Well I'm sorry my son but you're too late in asking[00:01:58]

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