Miner's Daughter
Well I was born a

coalminer's
daughter
In a cabin,

on a hill
in Butcher Holler
He shovelled coal

to make a poor
man's dollar
IVly daddy worked

all night in the
family coal mines
All day long

in the field
a-hoeing corn
Mummy rocked

the baby all night
Daddy loved and

raised us kids on
a miner's pay
Mummy scrubbed
our clothes on a

washboard
everyday
Why I've seen

her fingers bleed
In the summertime

we didn't have
shoes to wear
But in the
wintertime

we'd all get
a brand new pair
From a mail-order

catalogue
Money made

from selling a hog
Daddy always
managed to get

the money
somewhere
Yeah, I'm proud
to be a

coalminer's
daughter
I remember well

the well where
I drew water
I never thought of

ever leavin'
Butcher Holler
Well a lot of things
have changed

since
way back then
And it's so good

to be back
home again
Not much left

but the floor
Except the
memories of a

coalminer's
daughter
