I come from the mountains,
Kentucky's my home
Where the wild deer and black
bear so lately did roam

By the cool rushing waterfall
E

the wildflowers dream
B

And through every green valley,
there runs a clear stream
E

Now there's scenes of
A

destruction on every hand
E
E

And only black waters run
B
B

E
E

down through my land

Black waters, black waters,

Well, the quail, she's a pretty bird
B

E

and she sings a sweet tongue
In the roots of tall timber she
B

E
E

nests with her young
A
A

The the hillside explodes with
B
B

E
E

the dynamites roar
B
B

And the voice of the small bird
is heard there no more

And the mountain comes
A

a sliding so awful and grand
E

And the flooding black waters
B
B

E

rise over my land

In the ending of springtime

In the summer come a nice man

saying everything's fine
My employer just requires

a way to his mine
Verse 6

Then they tore down my mountain
A

and covered my corn

Now the grave on the hillside's

with his hat in his hand

While the poison black

Well I ain't got no money,
not much of a home
I own my own land,

But, if I had ten million,
Bb

A
A

E

somewheres thereabout
Well, I'd buy Perry county and

And just sit down on the banks

with my bait and my can
E

And watch the clear waters run

down through my land

Well,

wouldn't that be just like
the old promised land?

Black waters,
black waters no more in my land
Black waters,

black waters no more in my land
