John Denver - Paradise слова песни

When I was a child, my family would travel
Down to western Kentucky where my parents were born
There`s a backwards old town that`s often remembered
So many times that the memories are worn

And Daddy, won`t you take me back to Muhlenburg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
Well, I`m sorry, my son, but you`re too late in asking
Mister Peabody`s coal train has hauled it away

Sometimes we`d travel right down the Green River
To the abandoned old prison down by Adrie Hill
Where the air smelled like snakes
And we`d shoot with our pistols
But empty pop bottles was all we would kill

And Daddy, won`t you take me back to Muhlenburg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
Well, I`m sorry, my son, but you`re too late in asking
Mister Peabody`s coal train has hauled it away

The coal company came with the world`s largest shovel
And they tortured the timber and stripped all the land
And they dug for their coal `til the land was forsaken
They wrote it all down as the progress of man

And Daddy, won`t you take me back to Muhlenburg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
Well, I`m sorry, my son, but you`re too late in asking
Mister Peabody`s coal train has hauled it away

And Daddy, won`t you take me back to Muhlenburg County
Down by the Green River where Paradise lay
Well, I`m sorry, my son, but you`re too late in asking
Mister Peabody`s coal train has hauled it away
