Luyện nghe bài hát You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive

In the deep hills of Eastern Kentucky
That's the place where I my bloodline
And it's there I read on a hillside
"You'll never leave alive"

Oh my grandfather's Dad crossed the Mountains
Where he took a girl to be his bride
Said, "Won't you with me out of the mouth of this holler
Or we'll leave Harlan alive"

Where the sun comes up about ten in the
And the sun down about three in the day
And fill your cup with whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
And you spend your life just thinkin' of how to get

No one ever there was coal in them mountains
Till a man the northeast arrived
hundred dollar bills, said, "I'll pay you for your minerals"
But he never left alive

sold out cheap and they moved out west of Pike ville
To a farm where Big Richland River
And I bet danced them a jig and they laughed and sang a new song
"Who said never leave Harlan alive"

But the times got hard and tobacco wasn't
And old Granddad knew what he'd do to
He went and dug for Harlan and sent the money back to Grandma
But he never Harlan alive

Where the sun comes up ten in the mornin'
And the sun goes down about in the day
And you'll fill your cup with whatever brew you're drinkin'
And you spend life digging coal from the bottom of your grave

You'll never Harlan alive
