Luyện nghe bài hát You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive

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

Oh my grandfather's Dad crossed the Cumberland
Where he took a pretty to be his bride
Said, "Won't you walk with me out of the mouth of holler
Or never leave Harlan alive"

Where the sun up about ten in the mornin'
And the sun goes about three in the day
And you'll fill your cup whatever bitter brew you're drinkin'
And you spend your just thinkin' of how to get away

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

Grandma sold out cheap and they moved out 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 we'd leave Harlan alive"

But the times got hard and tobacco wasn't
And old Granddad knew he'd do to survive
He went and dug for Harlan and sent the money back to Grandma
But he left Harlan alive

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

You'll never leave alive
