Green Rolling Hills
Oh, 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 mines grave is all I'll ever own There's hard times everywhere I can't find a dime to spare These are the worst times I've ever known
But the green rolling hills of West Virginia Are the nearest thing to heaven that I know Though the times are sad and drear Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And I cannot linger here, they'll keep me And never let me go
So I'll move away into some crowded city. In some northern factory town you'll find me there Though I'll leave the past behind I'll never change my mind These troubled times are more than I can bear
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
[Instrumental]
Someday, I'll go back to West Virginia To those green, rolling hills I love so well Oh, someday I'll go home and I know I'll right the wrong These hard times will follow me no more
Oh, 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
Though the times are sad and drear And I cannot linger here, they'll keep me And never let me go
[Instrumental]
