[F] 
When I was a [Eb] curly headed [F] baby
My Daddy set me [Eb] down on his [F] knee
He said, "Go to [Eb] school and get your [F] letters
Don't you [C7] be a dirty coal miner like [F] me"
{c: }
I was [Eb] born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard [F] Holler
The [Eb] coal cars rolled and rumbled past my [F] door
Now they stand in a [Eb] rusty row all [F] empty
'Cause the [C7] L & N --- [NC] don't stop here any-[F]more
{c: }
Well, I used to think my [Eb] daddy was a [F] black man
With script enough to [Eb] buy the company [F] store
Now he goes to [Eb] town with empty [F] pockets
And his [C7] face is white as a February [F] snow
{c: }
I was [Eb] born and raised at the mouth of the Hazard [F] Holler
The [Eb] coal cars rolled and rumbled past my [F] door
Now they stand in a [Eb] rusty row all [F] empty
'Cause the [C7] L & N --- [NC] don't stop here any-[F]more
{c: }
{sos}
When I was a [Eb] curly headed [F] baby
My Daddy set me [Eb] down on his [F] knee
He said, "Go to [Eb] school and get your [F] letters
Don't you [C7] be a dirty coal miner like [F] me"
{eos}
Well, I never thought I'd [Eb] learn to love the [F] coal dust
Never thought I'd pray to [Eb] hear that whistle [F] roar
Lord god, I wish the [Eb] grass would turn to [F] money
And those [C7] greenbacks fill my pockets up once [F] more
{c: }
Yeah, I was [Eb] born and raised at the mouth of the Hazard [F] Holler
The [Eb] coal cars rolled and rumbled past my [F] door
Now they stand in a [Eb] rusty row all [F] empty
'Cause the [C7] L & N --- [NC] don't stop here any-[F]more
{c: Single strums and slower }
Last night I dreamed I [Eb] went down to the [F] coal yard
To draw my pay like [Eb] I  had done be[F] fore
Them Kudzu vines were [Eb] covering all the [F] windows
There were [C7] leaves and grass growing right up through the [F] floor
{c: }
I was [Eb] born and raised in the mouth of the Hazard [F] Holler
The [Eb] coal cars rolled and rumbled past my [F] door
Now they stand in a [Eb] rusty row all [F] empty
'Cause the [C7] L & N --- [NC] don't stop here any-[F]more
