Green Rolling Hills — текст песни (Emmylou Harris)

(Utah Phillips)

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

My daddy said don`t ever be a miner
For a miner`s grave is all you`ll ever own
`Cause the hard times everywhere
I can`t find a dime to spare
These are the worst times I`ve ever known

So I`ll move away into some crowded city
In some northern factory town you`ll find me here
Though I`ll leave the past behind
I`ll never change my mind
These trouble times are more than I can bear

But 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 wrong
These trouble times will follow me no more

Yes someday I`ll go home
And I know I`ll right the wrong
These trouble times will follow me no more
