	In the deep dark hills of
	Eastern Kentucky
	That's the place where
	I trace my bloodline
	And it's there
	I read on a hillside gravestone"You'll never leave Harlan alive"
	Oh, my granddad’s dad crossed the
	Cumberland
	MountainsWhere he took a pretty girl to be his bride
	Said, "Won't you walk with me out of the mouth of this hollerOr we'll never leave Harlan alive?"
	Where the sun comes up about ten in the mornin'
	The sun goes down about three in the day
	And you'll fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
	And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away
	No one ever knew there was coal in them mountains
	Till a man from the northeast arrived
	He was waving hundred dollar bills, said, "I'll pay you for your minerals"
	But he never left
	Harlan alive
	Grandma sold out cheap and they moved out west of
	PikevilleTo a farm where big
	Richland river winds
	Oh, I bet they danced them a jig and they laughed and sang a new song“
	Who said we'd never leave
	Harlan alive”
	But the times got hard and tobacco wasn't selling
	And old granddad knew what he'd do to survive
	So he went and dug for
	Harlan coal, sent the money back to granny
	But he never left
	Harlan alive
	Where the sun comes up about ten in the mornin'
	The sun goes down about three in the day
	You fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
	And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get away
	The sun comes up about ten in the mornin'
	And the sun goes down about three in the day
	And you fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
	And you spend your life diggin’ coal from the bottom of your grave
