PARADISE (Muhlenberg County)



(G) G - C G / G C G C7 G / G - C G / G C G D7 G



When I was a child, my family would travel

Down to western Kentucky where my parents were born

And there's a backwoods old town that's often remembered

So many times that my memories are worn



And daddy, won't you take be back to Muhlenberg County

Down by the Green river where Paradise lay

Well I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking

Mr. Peabody's coal train has hauled it away.



Well sometimes we'd travel right down the Green river

To the abandoned old prison down by Adrien 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

the area was completely demolished by the Peabody Coal Company's

stripping operations.
