E A E
There is a story the coal miners tell
B
In Hazzard Kentucky about a woman called Nell
A E
She came there from somewhere just her and a child
B E
And bought her a farm in the valley
E A E
Now rumor says she had a whole lot of money
B
That boy never would work a day in his life
E A E
And all of the miners, those old forty-niners
B E
Tried harder than ever to make Nell their wife
A B A E
But Nell was a lady content with the baby
B
She'd had a good man who was lost in the mine
E A E
At night she would listen for sounds of his hammer
B E
And look in the coal miners' faces for signs
E A E
For years people talked of the pretty young woman
B
The boy, long neglected, had turned to a man
E A E
Who walked thru the tunnels in search of his daddy
B E
And carried a cold lump of coal in his hand
A B A E
She called the boy David, a name from the Good Book
B
For she believed prayin' was good for the soul
E A E
She'd found him abandoned when he was a baby
B E
Clutched tight in his hand was a cold lump of coal
A E A E
Now the truth of the matter, she tried to keep secret
B
But small towns know more than a body should tell
E A E
And it wasn't long 'til the story was proven
B E
For someone had murded the lady called Nell
E A E
The investigation meant questioning David
B
They hounded that boy 'til he lost self control
A E A E
It seems on the floor underneath that old lady
B E
Just touching her head was a cold lump of coal
E A E
Now witnesses swore 'twas the work of the devil
B
'Cause Jesus could never have been that unkind
A E A E
The jury said guilty, the judge had no mercy
B E
The boy was convicted of serious crime
A B A E
And it wasn't long after the boy's execution
B
F# man name of Billy confessed to the kill
E A E
His conscience was burdened with innocent bodies
B E
For he swore he'd only been doing God's will
A B A E
He told in a vision the Lord had come to him
B
And whispered go down and take that woman's life
E A E
For she is a sinner not fit to be livin'
B E
Go down there and kill her but don't use your knife
A B A E
Now wait 'til the boy leaves to look for his daddy
B
He'll be forgotten down there in that hole
E A E
Billy confessed how he snuck up behind her
B E
And beat her to death with a cold lump of coal
E A E
Now all of you people that's preaching the gospel
B
Remember repentence must come from the soul
E A E
The Lord knows the answer I'm not free to give it
N/A (D) (C) (G)
For I'm just the voice of a cold lump of coal
