nancy sinatra & lee hazlewood - arkansas coal lyrics

Loading...

[intro: lee hazlewood]
not so long ago, just outside paris, arkansas
a young lady had a mountain to climb

[hook: nancy sinatra]
gonna climb up this mountain
cause there’s one thing i know
my daddy’s in this mountain
digging arkansas coal

[verse 2: nancy sinatra]
yes i hear my mama calling
i’ll let her wait ten minutes more
she’ll be sold, cause i like to lay on the ground
and listen to the sound
of my daddy digging
arkansas coal

[verse 3: lee hazlewood]
i was born in this mountain
been down her since i was nine years old
and i know some day i’ll
die in this mountain
digging, digging
arkansas, arkansas coal
coal
arkansas coal

[musical interlude]

[verse 4: nancy sinatra]
married me a good man
back in ’59
knew he was an arkansas coal miner
and that suited me fine
got us a little daughter
she’s only eight years old
wishing she was a man like her daddy
digging arkansas coal

billy, get off of that mountain
billy, you gotta go to school
billy, you’re mama and daddy
ain’t gonna raise you no natural fool
ain’t gonna raise you no natural fool

mama, why’s the earth shaking
mama, is the world coming to an end
mama, why are you crying
is it another caving

[musical interlude]

[verse 5: lee hazlewood]
my god, the rocks are falling
ten thousand tons on my head
i knew someday this would happen
so this is how it feels to be dead
so this is how it feels to be dead

[musical interlude]

[hook: nancy sinatra]
gonna climb up that mountain
cause there’s one thing i know
my daddy’s in that mountain
digging arkansas coal
