the l&n don't stop here anymore - the local honeys lyrics

[verse 1]
well, when i was a curly headed baby
my daddy set me down upon his knee
he said “son, you go to school to learn your letters
don’t you be a dusty coal miner like me”

[chorus]
i was born and raised at the mouth of a hazard holler
the coal cars rolled and rumbled by my door
but now they’re standing in a rusty row of empties
and the l & n don’t stop here no more
[verse 2]
well, i used to think my daddy was a black man
with script enough to buy the company store
ah, but now he goes downtown with empty pockets
and a face as white as february snow

[chorus]
i was born and raised at the mouth of a hazard hollеr
with the coal cars rolling and rumbling by my door
but now they’re standing in a rusty row of еmpties
and the l & n don’t stop here no more

[verse 3]
i dreamt last night i went down to the office
to get my pay just like i’d done before
but there was kudzu vines grown up over the window
and there was leaves and grass growing right up through the floor

[verse 3]
well, i never thought i’d learn to love that coal dust
i never thought i’d pray for the tipple’s roar
oh, how i wish the grass would turn to money
and greenbacks fill my pockets once more

[chorus]
i was born and raised at the mouth of a hazard holler
with the coal cars rolling and rumbling by my door
but now they’re standing in a rusty row of empties
and the l & n don’t stop here no more
