Текст песни The Green Rolling Hills Of West Virginia - Live - Emmylou Harris

Oh, the green rolling hills of West Virginia
Are the neartest thing to heaven that I know
Though the times are sad and drear and I cannot linger here
They'll keep me and never let me go

My daddy said, "Don't ever be a miner
For a miner's grave is all you'll ever own
'Cause the hard time's everywhere, I can't find a dime to spare
These are the worst times I've ever known"

But the green rolling hills of West Virginia
Are the neartest thing to heaven that I know
Though the times are sad and drear and I cannot linger here
They'll keep me and never let me go

So I'll move away into some crowded city
In some northern factory town, you'll find me there
Though I leave the past behind I'll never change my mind
These troubled times are more than I can bear

But the green rolling hills of West Virginia
Are the neartest thing to heaven that I know
Though the times are sad and drear and I cannot linger here
They'll keep me and never let me go

But someday I'll go back to West Virginia
To the green rolling hills I love so well
Yes, someday I'll go home and I know I'll right the wrong
These troubled times will follow me no more

Yes, someday I'll go home and I know I'll right the wrong
These troubled times will follow me no more
