Tecumseh Valley crd
Written by: Townes Van Zandt
Recorded by Steve Earle on Train A Comin'
(G)The name she gave was (C)Caro(G)line
The (C)daughter of a (G)miner
and her (C)ways were free and it (G)seemed to (Em) me
The (D) sunshine walked (C) beside her
(G)she came from Spencer (C) 'cross the (G) hill
She said (C) her Pa had (G) sent Her
Cause the (C)coal was low and soon (G) the (Em)snow
would (D) turn the skies to (C) winter
well she said she'd come to look for work
she was not seeking favors
for a dime a day and a place to stay
She'd turn those hands to labor
The times were hard Lord the jobs were few
All through Tecumseh Valley
But she asked around and a job she found
Tending Bar for Gypsy Sally
She saved enough to get back home
When spring replaced the winter
But her dreams were denied her Pa had died
The word came down from Spencer
She turned to whorin' out in the streets
with all the list inside her
It was many a man returned again
To lay himself beside her
Well they found her down beneath the stairs
That led to Gypsy Sally's
In her hand when she died
was a note that cried
Fare thee well Tecumseh Valley
