(Utah Phillips)
2
The green rolling hills of West Virginia
3
Are the nearest thing to heaven that I know
4
Though the times are sad and drear
5
And I cannot linger here
6
They'll keep me and never let me go
7
My daddy said don't ever be a miner
8
For a miner's grave is all you'll ever own
9
'Cause the hard times everywhere
10
I can't find a dime to spare
11
These are the worst times I've ever known
12
So I'll move away into some crowded city
13
In some northern factory town you'll find me here
14
Though I'll leave the past behind
15
I'll never change my mind
16
These trouble times are more than I can bear
17
But someday I'll go back to west Virginia
18
To the green rolling hills I love so well
19
Yes someday I'll go home
20
And I know I'll right the wrong
21
These trouble times will follow me no more
22
Yes someday I'll go home
23
And I know I'll right the wrong
24
These trouble times will follow me no more
