letra de tecumseh valley (live at carnegie hall 1969) - townes van zandt
[verse 1]
well the name she gave was caroline
the daughter of a miner
and her ways were free, and it seemed to me
that sunshine walked beside her
[verse 2]
well she come from spencer, ‘cross the hill
she said her pa had sent her
’cause the coal was low and soon the snow
would turn the skies to winter
[verse 3]
she said she’d come to look for work
she was not seekin’ favors
and for a dime a day and a place to stay
well she’d turn those hands to labor
[verse 4]
but the times were hard, lord, and the jobs were few
all through tec-mseh valley
but she asked around and a job she found
tending bar for gypsy sally
[verse 5]
and she saved enough to get back home
when spring replaced the winter
but her dreams were denied, her pa had died
the word come down from spencer
[verse 6]
so she turned to whorin’ out on the streets
with all the l-st inside her
and it was many a man, returned again
to lay himself beside her
[verse 7]
well they found her down beneath the stairs
that led to gypsy sally’s
and in her hand when she died was a note that cried
“fare thee well, tec-mseh valley”
[verse 1]
well the name she gave was caroline
the daughter of a miner
and her ways were free, and it seemed to me
that sunshine walked beside her
