Manys the times Ive walked its banks
With tearful pride and humble thanks
Its baptized my soul and made me whole
Freed my hands from dirty coal
Many small houses sit on its backs
Catalogues odf dreams and praire sof thanks
Washed my body and cleaneed my mind
Its been cruel and its been kind
Coal River, Coal River
Coal River Ive come home
I see my daddy all tired and worn
A gentleman, yet full of scorn
We sit on the front porch and watch it (?)
Dream of knowledge and talk of pain
But that old city got to big for me
Just like the river our love runs free
So here I am and here Ill stay
Ill just live my life from day to day on
Coal River, Coal River
