The L & N Don't Stop Here Anymore

[00:07.43] When I was a curly headed baby
[00:12.42] My daddy sat me down upon his knee
[00:17.27] He said, "Boy, you go to school and learn your letters
[00:22.12] Don't you be a dirty miner like me"
[00:27.13] I was born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard Hollow
[00:32.64] Coal cars rambled past my door
[00:37.14] Now they're standin' in a rusty row, all empty
[00:42.29] And the L and N
[00:46.59] Don't stop here anymore
[00:50.19] I used to think my daddy was a black man
[00:55.16] With script enough to buy the company store
[01:00.06] Now, he goes downtown with pockets empty
[01:04.73] And his face is white as a February snow
[01:10.34] I was born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard Hollow
[01:15.54] Coal cars rambled past my door
[01:20.22] Now they're standing in a rusty row, all empty
[01:25.27] And the L and N
[01:29.28] Don't stop here anymore
[01:33.38]
[01:49.50] Last night I dreamed, I went down to the coal yard
[01:55.74] To draw my pay like I always did before
[02:00.50] But them old kudzu vines were coming through the windows
[02:05.47] And leaves and grass were growing through the floor
[02:10.46] I was born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard Hollow
[02:15.97] Coal cars rambled past my door
[02:20.68] Now, they're standin' in a rusty row, all empty
[02:25.63] And the L and N
[02:29.25]
[02:34.30] Don't stop here anymore
[02:36.28]
