Well, I was born a coal miner's daughter, In a cabin, on a hill in butcher holler, We were poor, but we had love, That's the one thing daddy made sure of, He shoveled coal to make a poor man's dollar. My daddy worked all night in the Van Lear Cole Mines, All day long in a field a-hoein' corn, Mommy rocked the babies at night, and read The Bible by the coal-oil light, And everything would start all over come break of mornin'. Daddy loved and raised 8 kids on a miner' pay, Mommy scrubbed our clothes on a wash board every day, Why, I seen her fingers bleed, to complain, there was no need, She'd smile in mommy's understanding way. In the summertime we didn't have shoes to wear, But in the winter time, we'd all get a brand new pair, From a mail-order catalog, money mad from selling a hog, Daddy all ways managed to get the money somewhere. Yeah, I'm proud to be a coal miner's daughter, I remember well, the well where I drew water, The work we done was hard, at night we'd sleep 'cause we were tired, I never thought of leavin' Butcher Holler. Well, a lot of things have changed since way back then, And it's so good to be back home again, Not much left but the floor, nothin' lives here anymore, 'Cept the memories of a coal miner's daughter. |

Sometimes at night while you're fast asleep
I lie there alone in the darkness and weep So sorry and sad but that's part of the deal when the tingle becomes a chill I never wanted to stop loving you I'll swear by the breath in my body that's true Ah but a woman can't help the way that she feels when the tingle becomes a chill You're so contented but for me it's all gone And though I pretend you just don't turn me on The body performs but the soul has no will when the tingle becomes a chill I never wanted to stop loving you... |

You wined me and dined me
When I was your girl Promised if I'd be your wife You'd show me the world But all I've seen of this old world Is a bed and a doctor bill I'm tearin' down your brooder house 'Cause now I've got the pill. All these years I've stayed at home While you had all your fun And every year thats gone by Another babys come. There's a gonna be some changes made Right here on nursery hill You've set this chicken your last time 'Cause now I've got the pill. This old maternity dress I've got Is goin' in the garbage The clothes I'm wearin' from now on Won't take up so much yardage. Miniskirts, hot pants And a few little fancy frills Yeah, I'm makin' up for all those years Since I've got the pill. I'm tired of all your crowin' How you and your hens play While holdin' a couple in my arms Another's on the way. This chicken's done tore up her nest And I'm ready to make a deal And ya can't afford to turn it down 'Cause you know I've got the pill. This incubator is overused Because you've kept it filled The feelin' good comes easy now Since I've got the pill. It's gettin' dark it's roostin' time Tonight's too good to be real Oh, but daddy don't you worry none 'Cause mama's got the pill. Oh, daddy don't you worry none 'Cause mama's got the pill... |

He doesn't know that I can't look him in the eyes
For that I can't speak or I'll start tellin' lies I hope he thinks that I'm just moody and quiet But another man loved me last night. Yes, another man loved me last night I'd almost forgotten what love was really like But I'm only human, only a woman I let another man love me last night. While he's sleepin', well, I'm crying here awake Not being loved was more than I could take So it was wrong, there in his arms, it seemed so right When another man loved me last night. Yes, another man loved me last night I'd almost forgotten what love was really like But I'm only human, only a woman I let another man love me last night... |

Well I like my lovin' done country style
And this little girl would walk a country mile, To find her a good old slow-talkin country boy I said a country boy I'm about as old-fashion as I can be And I hope you're likin' what you see 'Cause if you're lookin' at me You're lookin' at country. (CHORUS) You don't see no city when you look at me "Cause, country's all I am I love runnin bare naked through the old corn fields And I love that country Ham-ha-ham Well, you say I'm made just to fit your plans But does a barnyard shovel fit your hands If your eyes are on me You're lookin' at country This here country is a little green And there's alot of country that-a you ain't seen I'll show you around if you'll show me a wedding band I said a weddin' band When it comes to love, well, I know about that Country folks all know where it's at If you're lookin' at me Your lookin' at country (REPEAT CHORUS) |
