They learned readin', writin', Route 23
F# C#
To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities' factories
G#
they didn't know that that old highway
F# C#
Could lead them to a world of misery

Have you ever been down Kentucky way
Say south of Prestonburg
Have you ever been up in a holler
Have you ever heard
F#
G# mountain man cough his life away
From diggin' that black coal

In those dark mines, those old dark mines

If you had you might just understand
F# C#
The reason that they left is all behind
Chorus:

To the jobs that lay waitin' in those cities' factories
They learned readin', writin', roads to the north
F# C#
To the luxury and comfort a coal miner can't afford
They thought readin', writin', Route 23
F# C#
Ah Would take them to the good life that they had never seen
G#
They didn't know that old highway
F# C#
Could lead them to a world of misery

C#
Have you ever seen 'em
Put the kids in the car after work on Friday night
Pull up in a holler about 2 A. M.
And see a light still shinin' bright
F#
Those mountain folks sat up that late
to hold those little grandkids
C#
In their arms, in their arms
B
And I'm proud to say that I've been blessed
F# C#
And touched by their sweet hillbilly charm
Chorus:
C#
They learned readin', writin', Route 23

To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities' factories
They learned readin', writin', roads to the north
F# C#
To the luxury and comfort a coal miner can't afford
They thought readin', writin', Route 23
F# C#
Oh Would take them to the good life that they had never seen
G#
They didn't know that old highway
F# C#
Could lead them to a world of misery
G#
Yeah, it turns out that that old highway,
F# C#
Leads you to a world of misery
