The L&N Don’t Stop Here Anymore The Local Honeys

[Verse 1]
Well, when I was a curly-headed baby
My daddy set me down upon his knee
He said, "Son, you go to school to learn your letters
Don't you be a dusty miner like me"

[Chorus]
I was born and raised at the mouth of a Hazard holler
Coal cars rolled and rumbled by my door
Oh, but now they're standin' in a rusty row of empties
And the L&N don't stop here no more

[Verse 2]
Well, I used to think my daddy was a Black man
With scrip enough to buy the company store
Oh, but now he goes downtown with empty pockets
And a face as white as February snow

[Chorus]
I was born and raised at the mouth of a Hazard holler
With thе coal cars rollin', rumblin' by my door
Oh, but now they're standin' in a rusty row of emptiеs
And the L&N don't stop here no more

[Verse 3]
I dreamt last night I went down to the office
To get my pay just like I've done before
There was kudzu vines half-grown up over the windows
And there was leaves and grass growin' right up through the floor
