Verse

G                 C          G       C
In an Appalachian  Greyhound station
               G       D            G
She sits there waiting, in a family way
         G       C           G         C
“Goodbye brother, tell Mom I love her
             G      D               G
Tell all the others, I'll write someday.”

Chorus

G               C                  G
From an teenage lover, to an unwed mother
          G                    D
kept undercover, like some bad dream
            G        C              G        C
While unwed fathers,  they can't be bothered
              G      D                   G
They run like water,  through a mountain stream

Verse

              G          C              G        C
In a cold and grey town,  a nurse says “Lay down
              G          D               G
This ain't no playground, and this ain't home”
         G         C          G       C
Someones children, out having children
                G         D      G
in a grey stone building,  all alone

Chorus

G               C                  G
From an teenage lover, to an unwed mother
          G                    D
kept undercover, like some bad dream
            G        C              G        C
While unwed fathers,  they can't be bothered
              G      D                   G
They run like water,  through a mountain stream

On a somewhere else bound, Smokey Mountain Greyhound
             G          D             G
She bows her head down,  humming lullabys
            G      C                  G     C
“Your daddy never,  meant to hurt you ever
              G          D                   G
He just don't live here,  but you've got his eyes”

While unwed fathers,  they can't be bothered
