Unwed Fathers - John Prine[00:00:00]
In an Appalachian Greyhound station[00:00:08]
She sits there waiting in a family way[00:00:15]
Goodbye brother Tell Mom I love her[00:00:23]
Tell all the others I'll write someday[00:00:30]
(Chorus:)[00:00:37]
From an teenage lover to an unwed mother[00:00:38]
Kept undercover like some bad dream[00:00:45]
While unwed fathers they can't be bothered[00:00:52]
They run like water through a mountain stream[00:00:59]
In a cold and gray town a nurse say's Lay down[00:01:14]
This ain't no playground and this ain't home[00:01:22]
Someone's children out having children[00:01:29]
In a gray stone building all alone[00:01:36]
From an teenage lover to an unwed mother[00:01:43]
Kept undercover like some bad dream[00:01:51]
While unwed fathers they can't be bothered[00:01:59]
They run like water through a mountain stream[00:02:05]
On somewhere else bound Smokey Mountain Greyhound[00:02:42]
She bows her head down humming lullabies[00:02:49]
Your daddy never meant to hurt you ever[00:02:57]
He just don't live here but you've got his eyes[00:03:04]
(Chorus)[00:03:10]
From an teenage lover to an unwed mother[00:03:11]
Kept undercover like some bad dream[00:03:18]
While unwed fathers they can't be bothered[00:03:26]
They run like water through a mountain stream[00:03:33]
While unwed fathers they can't be bothered[00:03:40]
They run like water through a mountain stream[00:03:47]
