Coal Miner's Daughter - Single Version

[00:07.98] Well I was born a coal miner's daughter
[00:14.32] In a cabin on a hill in Butcher Holler
[00:22.05] We were poor but we had love
[00:24.86] That's the one thing that Daddy made sure of
[00:28.51] He shoveled coal to make a poor man's dollar
[00:35.25] My daddy worked all night in the Vanleer Coal Mine
[00:40.15] All day long in the field hoein' corn
[00:46.08]
[00:49.33] Mommy rocked the babies at night
[00:52.38] And read the bible by the coal oil light
[00:55.84] And everything would start all over come break of morn
[01:03.19] Daddy loved and raised their kids on a miner's pay
[01:09.53] Mommy scrubbed our clothes on a washboard ev'eryday
[01:16.84] Well I've seen her fingers bleed
[01:21.08] To complain, there was no need
[01:24.55] She'd smile in Mommy's understanding way
[01:29.23] In the summer time we didn't have shoes to wear
[01:35.61]
[01:37.83] But in the winter time we'd all get a brand new pair
[01:44.88] From a Mail Order Catalogue
[01:48.05] Money made from sellin' a hog
[01:52.05] Daddy always managed to get the money somewhere
[01:58.57] Yeah I'm proud to be a coal miner's daughter
[02:06.32] I remember well the well where I drew water
[02:12.31] The work we done was hard
[02:16.21] At night we'd sleep cause we were tired
[02:19.84] I've never thought of ever leaving Butcher Holler
[02:26.56] Well a lot of things have changed since way back then
[02:33.92] And its so good to be back home again
[02:40.13] Not much left but the floor
[02:43.63] Nothin' lives here anymore
[02:48.31] Except the memories of a coal miner's daughter
[02:52.87]
