Verse 1
E
I come from the mountains,
Kentucky's my home
Where the wild deer and black
bear so lately did roam
A
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
And only black waters run
B
E
down through my land
Verse 2
A
E
Sad scenes of destruction on every hand
Black waters, black waters,
Verse 3
run down through my land
E
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
nests with her young
A
The the hillside explodes with
B
E
the dynamites roar
B
And the voice of the small bird
is heard there no more
E
And the mountain comes
A
a sliding so awful and grand
E
And the flooding black waters
B
E
rise over my land
Verse 4
A
Sad scenes of destruction
Black waters, black waters,
B
E
run down through my land
Verse 5
E
In the coming of springtime
B
E
we planted our corn
In the ending of springtime
B
E
we buried our son
A
In the summer come a nice man
E
saying everything's fine
My employer just requires
B
a way to his mine
Verse 6
E
Then they tore down my mountain
A
and covered my corn
E
Now the grave on the hillside's
B
a mile deeper down
E
And the man stands a talking
A
with his hat in his hand
E
While the poison black
B
E
waters rise over my land
Verse 7
A
E
Sad scenes of destruction on every hand
Black waters, black waters,
B
E
run down through my land
Verse 8
E
Well I ain't got no money,
not much of a home
I own my own land,
B
E
but my land's not my own
A
But, if I had ten million,
Bb
A
E
somewheres thereabout
Well, I'd buy Perry county and
B
throw them all out
E
And just sit down on the banks
A
with my bait and my can
E
And watch the clear waters run
B
E
down through my land
A
Well,
Verse 9
wouldn't that be just like
the old promised land?
E
Black waters,
black waters no more in my land
Black waters,
B
E
black waters no more in my land
