《You’ll Never Leave Harlan Alive》歌词

[00:00:00] You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive - Darrell Scott

[00:00:01] Written by：Darrell Scott

[00:00:03] In the deep dark hills

[00:00:07] Of eastern kentucky

[00:00:12] That's the place where

[00:00:14] I trace my bloodline

[00:00:19] And it's there I read

[00:00:23] On a hillside gravestone

[00:00:28] You will never leave harlan alive

[00:00:39] Well my grandad's dad walked down

[00:00:43] Katahrin's mountain

[00:00:46] And he asked tillie helton

[00:00:48] To be his bride

[00:00:52] He said won't you walk with

[00:00:54] Me out of the mouth of this holler

[00:00:59] Or we'll never leave harlan alive

[00:01:05] Where the sun comes up about

[00:01:09] Ten in the morning

[00:01:11] And the sun goes down

[00:01:16] About three in the day

[00:01:18] And you fill your cup with

[00:01:21] Whatever bitter brew your drinking

[00:01:25] And you spend your life just

[00:01:28] Thinking how to get away

[00:01:33] No one ever knew there was

[00:01:37] Coal in them mountains

[00:01:40] Til a man from the northeast arrived

[00:01:46] Waving hundred dollar bills

[00:01:49] He said I'll pay you for your minerals

[00:01:53] But he never left harlan alive

[00:02:06] Well granny she sold out cheap

[00:02:09] Moved out west to pineville

[00:02:12] To a farm where big richland river winds

[00:02:18] And I'll bet they danced them a jig

[00:02:21] And they laughed and sang a new song

[00:02:24] Who said we'd never leave harlan alive

[00:03:03] But the times they got hard

[00:03:06] And tobacco wasn't selling

[00:03:09] And old granddad knew what

[00:03:11] He'd do to survive

[00:03:15] He went and dug for harlan coal

[00:03:18] And sent the money back to granny

[00:03:22] But he never left harlan alive

[00:03:28] Where the sun comes up about

[00:03:33] Ten in the morning

[00:03:35] And the sun goes down

[00:03:39] About three in the day

[00:03:42] And you fill your cup with

[00:03:46] Whatever bitter brew your drinking

[00:03:49] And you spend your life just

[00:03:53] Thinking how to get away

[00:03:56] Where the sun comes up about

[00:04:00] Ten in the morning

[00:04:02] And the sun goes down

[00:04:06] About three in the day

[00:04:09] And you fill your cup with

[00:04:12] Whatever bitter brew your drinking

[00:04:15] And you spend your life

[00:04:18] Even go from the butter of your rain

[00:04:25] In the deep dark hills

[00:04:29] Of eastern kentucky

[00:04:33] That's the place where

[00:04:35] I trace my bloodline

[00:04:42] And it's there I read

[00:04:45] On a hillside gravestone

[00:04:50] You will never leave harlan alive
