Tar-Heel Boy

Tar-heel boy sings a song

'Bout a girl who ain't comin' home

By n by, by n by

She worked too long in the millShe's gone to those rolling hills in the sky

We're barely off mama's milk

And we're locked in here weavin' silk

We can't buy, we can't buyWhile you been off in Oregon

I been drinkin' here all alone

All night long, all day long

They shot a nine-year-old boy

For a hundred dollars
