Paradise - Johnny Cash[00:00:01]

Daddy won't you take me[00:00:09]

Back to Muhlenberg County[00:00:10]

Down by the Green River[00:00:12]

Where Paradise lay[00:00:14]

I'm sorry my son [00:00:19]

But you're too late in asking[00:00:21]

Mister Peabody's coal train[00:00:23]

Done hauled it away[00:00:25]

When I was a child [00:00:30]

My family would travel[00:00:32]

Down to western Kentucky where[00:00:34]

My parents were born[00:00:36]

To a backwards old town[00:00:41]

That I've often remembered[00:00:43]

So many times that my mem'ries are worn[00:00:45]

And sometimes we'd travel right[00:00:51]

Down the Green River[00:00:54]

To the abandoned old prison[00:00:55]

Down by Adrian's Hill[00:00:57]

Where the air smelled like snakes[00:01:02]

And we'd shoot with our pistols[00:01:04]

But empty pop bottles[00:01:06]

Was all we would kill[00:01:08]

So daddy won't you take me[00:01:13]

Back to Muhlenberg County[00:01:14]

Down by the Green[00:01:16]

River where Paradise lay[00:01:18]

I'm sorry my son [00:01:23]

But you're too late in asking[00:01:25]

Mister Peabody's coal[00:01:27]

Train done hauled it away[00:01:29]

And the coal company came[00:01:34]

With the world's largest shovel[00:01:36]

They stripped all the timber[00:01:38]

And tortured the land[00:01:39]

They dug for the coal till the[00:01:44]

Land was forsaken[00:01:46]

Then they wrote it all down[00:01:48]

To the progress of man[00:01:50]

Oh daddy won't you take me[00:01:55]

Back to Muhlenberg County[00:01:57]

Down by the Green River[00:01:58]

Where Paradise lay[00:02:00]

I'm sorry my son [00:02:05]

But you're too late in asking[00:02:07]

Mister Peabody's coal train[00:02:09]

Done hauled it away[00:02:11]

When I die let my ashes float[00:02:16]

Down the Green River[00:02:17]

Let my soul roll on up to[00:02:19]

The Rochester Dam[00:02:21]

I'll be halfway to Heaven[00:02:25]

With Paradise waitin'[00:02:27]

Five miles away from[00:02:29]

Where ever I am[00:02:31]

Oh daddy won't you take me[00:02:36]

Back to Muhlenberg County[00:02:38]

Down by the Green[00:02:39]

River where Paradise lay[00:02:41]

I'm sorry my son [00:02:46]

But you're too late in asking[00:02:47]

Mister Peabody's coal train[00:02:49]

Done hauled it away[00:02:52]
