When I was a child my family would travel
Down to Western Kentucky where my parents were born
And there's a backwards old town that's often remembered
So many times that my mem'ries are worn
And Daddy, won't you take me back to Muglenberg County?
Down by the Green River where paradise lay
Well, I'm sorry my child but you're too late in asking
Mr Peabody's coal train has hauled it away
Well sometimes we traveled right down the Green River
By the abandoned old prison down by Adrie Hill
Where the air smelled like snakes and we'd shoot with the pistols
But empty pop bottles was all we would kill
And Daddy, won't you take me back to Muglenberg County
Down by the Green River where paradise lay?
Well, I'm sorry my child but you're too late in asking
Mr Peabody's coal train has hauled it away
Then the coal company came with the world's largest shovels
They tortured the timber and they stripped all the land
Well, they dug for the coal 'til the land was forsaken
Then we wrote it all down as the progress of man
And Daddy, won't you take me back to Muglenberg County
Down by the Green River where paradise lay?
Well, I'm sorry my child but you're too late in asking
Mr Peabody's coal train has hauled it away
Mr Peabody's coal train has hauled it away
Перевод
Когда я был ребенком, моя семья путешествовала
В Западный Кентукки, где родились мои родители
И есть один старый город, который часто вспоминают
Столько раз, что мои воспоминания стираются
И папочка, ты не отвезешь меня обратно в округ Мюгленберг?
Вниз по Грин-Ривер, где находился рай
Ну, прости, дитя мое, но ты слишком поздно спрашиваешь
Поезд с углем мистера Пибоди увез его
Ну, иногда мы путешествовали прямо по Грин-Ривер
Мимо заброшенной старой тюрьмы у Адри-Хилл
Где воздух пах змеями, и мы стрелять из пистолетов
Но пустые бутылки из-под газировки - это все, что мы готовы убить
И папочка, ты не отвезешь меня обратно в округ Мюгленберг
Вниз по Грин-Ривер, где находился рай?
Что ж, мне очень жаль, дитя мое, но ты опоздал с вопросом
Поезд с углем мистера Пибоди увез его
Затем пришла угольная компания с самыми большими в мире лопатами
Они мучили древесину и они опустошили всю землю
Ну, они копали уголь, пока земля не была заброшена
Тогда мы записали все это как прогресс человечества
И папочка, ты не возьмешь меня обратно в округ Мюгленберг
Вниз по Грин-Ривер, где находился рай?
Ну, мне жаль, дитя мое, но ты слишком поздно спрашиваешь
Поезд с углем мистера Пибоди увез его
Угольный поезд мистера Пибоди увез его
