Letra de
The L And N Dont Stop Here Anymore

When I was a curly headed baby
My Daddy set me down on his knee
He said, "Son go to school and get your letters
Don't you be a dirty coal miner like me"
I was born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard Hollow
The coal cars rumbled past my door
Now they stand in a rusty row all empty
'Cause the L & N --- don't stop here anymore
Well, I used to think my daddy was a black man
With script enough to buy the company store
Now he goes to town with empty pockets
And his face is white as a February snow
I was born and raised at the mouth of the Hazard Hollow
The coal cars rumbled past my door
Now they stand in a rusty row all empty
'Cause the L & N --- don't stop here anymore
Well, I never thought I'd learn to love the coal dust
Never thought I'd pray to hear that whistle roar
Lord god, I wish the grass would turn to money
And those greenbacks fill my pockets up once more
Yeah, I was born and raised at the mouth of the Hazard Hollow
The coal cars roared and rumbled past my door
Now they stand in a rusty row all empty
'Cause the L & N --- don't stop here anymore
Last night I dreamed I went down to the coal yard
To draw my pay like I had done before
Them Kudzu vines were covering all the windows
There were leaves and grass growing right up through the floor
I was born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard Hollow
The coal cars roared and rumbled past my door
Now they stand in a rusty row all empty
'Cause the L & N --- don't stop here anymore
