The Singing Scoutmaster: L & N Don't Stop Here Anymore

D When I was a Ccurly headed Dbaby

My Daddy set me Cdown on his Dknee

He said, 'Go to Cschool and get your Dletters

Don't you A7be a dirty coal miner like Dme'

I was Cborn and raised in the mouth of the Hazard DHoller

The Ccoal cars rolled and rumbled past my Ddoor

Now they stand in a Crusty row all Dempty

'Cause the A7L & N --- NCdon't stop here any-Dmore

Well, I used to think my Cdaddy was a Dblack man

With script enough to Cbuy the company Dstore

Now he goes to Ctown with empty Dpockets

And his A7face is white as a February Dsnow

I was Cborn and raised at the mouth of the Hazard DHoller

The Ccoal cars rolled and rumbled past my Ddoor

Now they stand in a Crusty row all Dempty

'Cause the A7L & N --- NCdon't stop here any-Dmore

When I was a Ccurly headed Dbaby

My Daddy set me Cdown on his Dknee

He said, 'Go to Cschool and get your Dletters

Don't you A7be a dirty coal miner like Dme'

Well, I never thought I'd Clearn to love the Dcoal dust

Never thought I'd pray to Chear that whistle Droar

Lord god, I wish the Cgrass would turn to Dmoney

And those A7greenbacks fill my pockets up once Dmore

Yeah, I was Cborn and raised at the mouth of the Hazard DHoller

The Ccoal cars rolled and rumbled past my Ddoor

Now they stand in a Crusty row all Dempty

'Cause the A7L & N --- NCdon't stop here any-Dmore

Single strums and slower

Last night I dreamed I Cwent down to the Dcoal yard

To draw my pay like CI had done beDfore

Them Kudzu vines were Ccovering all the Dwindows

There were A7leaves and grass growing right up through the Dfloor

I was Cborn and raised in the mouth of the Hazard DHoller

The Ccoal cars rolled and rumbled past my Ddoor

Now they stand in a Crusty row all Dempty

'Cause the A7L & N --- NCdon't stop here any-Dmore
