Blackie Kentucky - Dolly Parton[00:00:00]

In my home town of Blackie Kentucky[00:00:05]

He came passin' through one dark gloomy day[00:00:09]

And I considered myself as lucky[00:00:15]

When he told me he would take me away[00:00:20]

And though he was older it made me no difference[00:00:25]

His promise of riches was all I could see[00:00:30]

At last I could leave the coal mines of Kentucky[00:00:36]

And know something better than sad poverty[00:00:41]

Blackie Kentucky you know that I'll miss you[00:00:47]

But there are other places in the world I'd like to see[00:00:52]

So I must take this chance to be somethin' more than nothin'[00:00:58]

But I'll always hold you in my memory[00:01:03]

But I've never adjusted to sociable livin'[00:01:07]

The friends that he knows they're all strangers to me[00:01:13]

Thousands of miles from Blackie Kentucky[00:01:19]

In a mansion with a husband that never loved me[00:01:23]

He won't let my family and friends come to visit[00:01:29]

Because they are country and poor he's ashamed[00:01:34]

Oh but I'd give my life Lord if I could just go see them[00:01:40]

All that's changed about me is my name[00:01:45]

Blackie Kentucky oh Lord how I miss you[00:01:50]

If I could come back home I'd never leave you anymore[00:01:55]

I'd like to see my poor hardworking coal-minin' Daddy[00:02:01]

And Mama and the kids and the friends I knew before[00:02:06]

My world is as black as the coal in Kentucky[00:02:12]

He won't let me leave him - there's no way to win[00:02:17]

I'll take my own life dear God please forgive me[00:02:23]

But I've got to get back home to Blackie once again[00:02:27]

An' I've left him a note in the mornin' he'll find it[00:02:34]

It's my last request and he can't refuse me[00:02:39]

I've told him to bury me back in Blackie Kentucky[00:02:45]

Where my family and my friends can come and visit me[00:02:49]

Blackie Kentucky I'm comin' home to you[00:02:55]

But different from the way you remember me before[00:02:59]

So make me a place and I'll lay me down to rest[00:03:05]

And I'll sleep in your arms forevermore[00:03:10]

I'll sleep in your arms forever more[00:03:15]
