Unwed Fathers

by John Prine

G C G C

In an Appalachian, Greyhound station

G D G

She sits there waiting, in a family way

C G C

'Goodbye brother, Tell Mom I love her'

G D G

'Tell all the others, I'll write someday'

Refrão

G C G

From an teenage lover, to an unwed mother

D

kept undercovers, like some bad dream

G C G C

While unwed fathers, they can't be bothered

G D G

They run like water, through a mountain stream

G C G C

In a cold and grey town, a nurse say's 'Lay down'

G D G

'This ain't no playground, and this ain't home'

C G C

Someones children, out having children

G D G

in a grey stone building, all al-one

(Chorus)

G C G C

Some where else bound, Smokey Mountain Greyhound

G D G

She bows her head down, humming lullabys

C G C

'Your daddy never, meant to hurt you ever'

G D G

'he just don't live here, but you've got his eyes'

(Chorus)
