Lyrics You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive

In the deep dark hills of eastern Kentucky

That's the place where I traced my bloodline

And it's there I read on a hillside gravestone

You'll never leave Harlan alive

Oh my grandfather'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'

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 just thinkin' of how to get away

No one ever knew there was coal in them mountains

'Till a man from the northeast arrived

Wavin' hundred dollar bills

Said I'll pay for your minerals

But he never left

Harlan alive

Grandma sold out cheap and they moved out west of Pineville

To a farm where Big Richland

River winds

And I bet they danced them a jig

And they laughed and sang a new song

Who said we'd never leave

Harlan alive

Hmm mmh mmh mmh

But the times they got hard and tobacco wasn't sellin'

And old granddad knew what he'd do to survive

He went and dug for Harlan coal and sent the money back to grandma

But he never left

Harlan alive

Where 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

Mmh mmh hmm mmh hmm

Hmm mmh hmm hmm mmh

Hmm mmh hmm

Mmh hmm hmm

Hmm mmh mmh

Hmm mmh hmm mmh

Hmm

Hmm mmh mmh mmh mmh

You'll never leave Harlan alive

Ho oh oh ho oh

Mmh mmh mmh hmm

Mmh mmh mmh

Mmh mmh mmh mmh

Hmm

You'll never leave Harlan alive
