By townes van zandt[00:00:01]

The name she gave was caroline[00:00:13]

Daughter of a miner[00:00:21]

Her ways were free[00:00:26]

It seemed to me[00:00:29]

That sunshine walked beside her[00:00:34]

She came from spencer[00:00:44]

Across the hill[00:00:48]

She said her pa had sent her[00:00:52]

'Cause the coal was low[00:00:57]

And soon the snow[00:01:00]

Would turn the skies to winter[00:01:05]

She said she'd come[00:01:15]

To look for work[00:01:18]

She was not seeking favors[00:01:23]

And for a dime a day[00:01:27]

And a place to stay[00:01:31]

She'd turn those hands to labor[00:01:35]

But the times were hard lord[00:01:45]

The jobs were few[00:01:48]

All through tecumseh valley[00:01:53]

But she asked around[00:01:58]

And a job she found[00:02:01]

Tending bar at gypsy sally's[00:02:06]

She saved enough to get back home[00:02:16]

When spring replaced the winter[00:02:24]

But her dreams were denied[00:02:30]

Her pa had died[00:02:33]

The word come down from spencer[00:02:37]

So she turned to whorin' out on the streets[00:02:48]

With all the lust inside her[00:02:55]

And it was many a man[00:03:00]

Returned again[00:03:03]

To lay himself beside her[00:03:08]

They found her down beneath the stairs[00:03:18]

That led to gypsy sally's[00:03:26]

In her hand when she died[00:03:31]

Was a note that cried[00:03:34]

Fare thee well tecumseh valley[00:03:39]

The name she gave was caroline[00:03:49]

Daughter of a miner[00:03:58]

Her ways were free[00:04:02]

It seemed to me[00:04:05]

That sunshine walked beside her[00:04:07]
