Well[00:00:08]

The name she gave was Caroline[00:00:08]

The daughter of a miner[00:00:12]

An' her ways were free[00:00:23]

An' it seemed to me[00:00:27]

That sunshine walked beside her[00:00:32]

She comes from Spencer[00:00:45]

Across the hill[00:00:48]

She said her pa had sent her[00:00:54]

'Cause the coal was low and soon the snow[00:01:00]

Would turn the skies to winter[00:01:11]

Well[00:01:15]

She said[00:01:21]

She'd come to look for work[00:01:25]

She was not seekin' favors[00:01:30]

For a dime a day and a place to stay[00:01:36]

She'd turn those hands to labor[00:01:47]

The times were hard[00:01:58]

Lord and the jobs were few[00:02:00]

All through Tecumseh valley[00:02:06]

But she asked around till a job she found[00:02:13]

Tending bar at Gypsy Sally's[00:02:22]

Well[00:02:27]

She saved enough to get back home[00:02:34]

When spring replaced the winter[00:02:43]

But her dreams were denied[00:02:48]

Her pa had died[00:02:52]

Well[00:02:56]

The word come down from Spencer[00:02:58]

So she turned to whorin' out on the streets[00:03:10]

With all the lust inside her[00:03:18]

And it was many a man[00:03:24]

Returned again[00:03:28]

To lay himself beside her[00:03:34]

Well[00:03:45]

They found her down beneath the stairs[00:03:46]

That led to Gypsy Sally's[00:03:55]

And in her hand when she died was a note that cried[00:04:00]

'Fare Thee Well[00:04:09]

Tecumseh Valley'[00:04:12]

Well[00:04:21]

The name she gave was Caroline[00:04:21]

The daughter of a miner[00:04:30]

An' her ways were free[00:04:36]

An' it seemed to me[00:04:40]

That sunshine walked beside her[00:04:45]
