Harlan County Lyrics by Wayne Kemp
Wayne Kemp Lyrics
He made love to my woman
Down in Jackson Mississippi
And he went a round braggin’ that her body was so fine
He told my friends she was willin’
And I said at work I was gonna kill him
The next time he crosses that Mason Dixon line
‘Cause I’m from Harlan County Kentucky
And friend consider yourself damn lucky
That you’re not already six feet under ground
I have to work like a dog in the mines
To feed these three hungry kids of mine
And no man is gonna live long enough
To tell about runnin’ my woman around
‘Cause tonight I’m feelin’ bad as any man could feel
‘Cause I have to leave him lying there
On the cold cold ground so still
I tried to warn him
He wouldn’t listen
When I told him that woman was mine
He just had to cross that Harlan County line
I tried to warn him
He wouldn’t listen
When I told him that girl was mine
He just had to cross that Harlan County line
