Текст песни You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive - Kathy Mattea
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
Mountains
Where
he
took
a
pretty
girl
to
be
his
bride
Said,
"Won't
you
walk
with
me
out
of
the
mouth
of
this
holler
Or
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
Pikeville
To
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
