[Verse 1]
Oh, when I was a curly-headed baby
My daddy sat me down upon his knee
Said, "Son, you go to school and learn your letters
Don't be no dusty miner like me"

[Chorus]
I was born and raised at the mouth of the Hazard Holler
Coal cars roarin' and a-rumblin' past my door
Now they're standin' rusty, rollin' empty
And the L and N don't stop here anymore

[Verse 2]
I used to think my daddy was a black man
With scrip enough to buy the company store
But now he goes downtown with empty pockets
And his face is white as February snow

[Chorus]
I was born and raised at the mouth of the Hazard Holler
Coal cars roarin' and a-rumblin' past my door
Now they're standin' rusty, rollin' empty
And the L and N don't stop herе anymore

[Verse 3]
Last night I dreamt I went down to thе office
To get my pay day like I done before
Them old kudzu vines had covered up the doorway
And there was trees and grass, well, they're growing right through the floor
