the green rolling hills of west virginia - hazel dickens & alice gerrard lyrics
[chorus: alice gerrard & hazel d*ckens]
the green rolling hills of west virginia
are the nearest thing to heaven that i know
though the times are sad and drear
and i cannot linger here
they’ll keep me and never let me go
[verse 1: alice gerrard with hazel d*ckens]
my daddy said, “don’t ever be a miner
for a miner’s grave is all you’ll ever own”
oh, it’s hard times everywhere
i can’t find a dime to spare
these times are the worst i’ve еver known
[chorus: alice gerrard & hazel d*ckens]
but the green rolling hills of west virginia
arе the nearest thing to heaven that i know
though the times are sad and drear
and i cannot linger here
they’ll keep me and never let me go
[verse 2: alice gerrard with hazel d*ckens]
so i’ll move away into some crowded city
in some northern factory town, you’ll find me there
though i leave the past behind
i will never change my mind
these troubled times are more than i can bear
[chorus: alice gerrard & hazel d*ckens]
but the green rolling hills of west virginia
are the nearest thing to heaven that i know
though the times are sad and drear
and i cannot linger here
they’ll keep me and never let me go
[verse 3: alice gerrard with hazel d*ckens]
and someday, i’ll go back to west virginia
to the green rolling hills i love so well
yes, someday i’ll go home
and i know i’ll right the wrongs
these troubled times will follow me no more
yes, someday i’ll go home
and i know i’ll right the wrongs
and these troubled times will follow me no more
