Intro Riff
Verse 1
I Was Born In These Hills
The Same As My Daddy
And In These Hills
I Laid His Bones To Rest
I Work Hard Every Day
I Give One In Ten To Jesus
I Don't Know Where I'm Going
Don't Mean I Lost My Way
Pre-Chorus
Run, Run, Old Paper Town
Run, Old Paper Mill
When That Steam Machine Stops Pumping
We're Gonna Have Some Time To Kill
The Smokestacks Stop
And The Gates Are Locked
Gonna Be Some Time To Kill
Chorus
Roll On, Pigeon River
Roll On To Tennessee
You Might Leave Sweet Carolina
But You Ain't Seen The End Of Me
Verse 2
I Was Born In These Hills
Southern Appalachia
And In These Hills
My Mama Raised Me Up
She Said, "Child, You're A Wild One
Soft Thistle In Your Hair
Don't Let Nobody Tame You
That Fire Guide Your Way"
Chorus
Roll On, Pigeon River
Roll On To Tennessee
Say Goodbye, Sweet Carolina
You Ain't Seen The End Of Me
Roll On, Twisting River
And That Ghost To Tennessee
You Might Leave Sweet Carolina
You Ain't Seen The End Of Me
Pre-Chorus
Run, Run, Old Paper Town
Run, Old Paper Mill
When That Steam Machine Stops Pumping
We'll Find Some Time To Kill
Smokestacks Stop
And The Gates Are Locked
There'll Be Some Time To Kill
Verse
Try To Eat When I'm Hungry
I Try To Drink When I'm Dry
That Old Mill Never Killed Me
I'm Gonna Live Until I Die
I Work Hard Every Day
Blood And Sweat To Make A Paycheck
I Don't Know Where I'm Going
Don't Mean I Lost My Way
Chorus
Roll On, Pigeon River
Roll On To Tennessee
Goodbye, Sweet Carolina
You Ain't Seen The End Of Me
Roll On, Ancient River
To The Shores Of Tennessee
You Might Leave Sweet Carolina
But You Ain't Seen The End Of Me
Outro
Say Goodbye, Sweet Carolina
You Ain't Seen The End Of Me
