letra de paradise - pat green

Loading...

when i was a child, my family would travel
to western kentucky, where my parents were born
and there’s a backward old town that’s often remembered
so many times that my memories are worn

chorus

and daddy won’t you take me back to mulenberg county
down by the green river, where paradise lay
well i’m sorry my son, but you’re too late in askin’
mr. peabody’s coal train has hauled it away

well sometimes we’d float right down the green river

to an abandoned old prison down by atry hill

where the air smelled like snakes and we’d shoot with our pistols

but empty pop bottles was all we would kill

chorus

then the coal company came, with the world’s largest shovel
and they tortured the timber and stripped all the land
well they dug for their coal till the land was forsaken
then they wrote it all down as the progress of man

chorus

when i die let my ashes float down the green river
let my soul roll on up to the rochester dam
i’ll be halfway to heaven with paradise waitin’
just five miles away from wherever i am

chorus
