Kishore Kumar Hits — Kathy Mattea - Hello, My Name Is Coal текст песни

Исполнитель: Kathy Mattea

альбом: Calling Me Home

I'm from West 'by God' Virginia
And the high Kentucky hills
I'm dirty but I'm honest
I pay a poor man's bills
I'm prosperity and poverty
I'm a scoundrel and a saint
I'm loved, reviled, misunderstood
I'm hope in a hopeless place
Hello, my name is coal
And around here I'm the king
Some say I'm a savior
Some say death is what I bring
I've broke miner's backs & hearts
And I've wrestled for their souls
Let me introduce myself
Hello, my name is coal
Some men call me 'black gold'
You might have heard of me
My body is the mountain
My breath is kerosene
You might think I'm outta date
But if I'm out of style and old
Why do men still dig me
All around the globe?
Hello, my name is coal
And around here I'm the queen
Some say I'm cheap and easy
Oh but they still bow to me
Be careful, I'll break up your home
And I'll steal away your soul
It's dangerous to lust for me
Hello, my name is coal
They curse me now for what I am
But not that long ago
They sang my praises everywhere
Hello, my name is coal
