Coal Miner's Daughter - Country Crusaders[00:00:00]
Well I was born a coal miner's daughter[00:00:07]
In a cabin on a hill in Butcher Holler[00:00:14]
We were poor but we had love[00:00:21]
That's the one thing that daddy made sure of[00:00:25]
He shoveled coal to make a poor man's dollar[00:00:28]
My daddy worked[00:00:35]
All night in the Van Lear coal mine[00:00:37]
All day long in the field a-hoin' corn[00:00:43]
Mommy rocked the babies at night[00:00:49]
And read the Bible by the coal oil light[00:00:53]
And ever'thing would start[00:00:56]
All over come break of morn'[00:00:58]
Daddy loved and raised[00:01:03]
Eight kids on a miner's pay[00:01:05]
Mommy scrubbed our clothes[00:01:10]
On a washboard ever' day[00:01:12]
Why I've seen her fingers bleed[00:01:17]
To complain there was no need[00:01:21]
She'd smile in Mommy's understanding way[00:01:24]
In the summertime[00:01:31]
We didn't have shoes to wear[00:01:34]
But in the wintertime[00:01:38]
We'd all get a brand new pair[00:01:41]
From a mail order catalog[00:01:45]
Money made from sellin' a hog[00:01:49]
Daddy always managed to[00:01:53]
Get the money somewhere[00:01:55]
Yeah I'm proud to be a coal miner's daughter[00:01:59]
I remember well the well where I drew water[00:02:07]
The work we done was hard[00:02:14]
At night we'd sleep 'cause we were tired[00:02:17]
I never thought of[00:02:21]
Ever leaving Butcher Holler[00:02:22]
Well a lot of things have[00:02:28]
Changed since way back then[00:02:30]
And it's so good to be back home again[00:02:36]
Not much left but the floor[00:02:42]
Nothing lives here anymore[00:02:46]
Except the mem'ries of a coal miner's daughter[00:02:50]
