G One of my fondest memoriesC Was sittin' on my daddy's kneeG Listenin' to the stories that he toldG He'd pull out that old photographC Like a treasured memory from the pastG And say childD G This here's the Van Lear RoseG Oh how it would bring a smileC When he talked about her big blue eyesG And how her beauty ran down to her soulG She'd walk across the coal miners' yardC Them miners would yell loud and hardG D and they'd dream of who would holdG The Van Lear RoseC She was the belle of Johnson CountyG Ohio river to Big SandyD G A beauty to behold like a diamond in the coalContinúa después del anuncioC All the miners they would gather 'roundG Talk about the man that came to townD Right under their noseG Stole the heart of the Van Lear RoseG Now the Van Lear Rose could've had her pickC And all the fellers figured richG Until this poor boy caught her eyeG His buddies would all laugh and sayC You're dreamin' boy she'll never look your wayG D You'll never ever hold the VanG Lear RoseC She was the belle of Johnson CountyG Ohio river to Big SandyD G A beauty to behold like a diamond in the coalC All the miners they would gather 'roundG Talk about the man that came to townD Right under their noseG Stole the heart of the Van Lear RoseG Then one night in mid JulyC Underneath that ol' blue Kentucky skyG Well, that poor boy won that beauty's heartG Then my daddy would look at my mommy and smileC As he brushed the hair back from my eyes and he'd sayG Your mamaD G She's the Van Lear RoseC She was the belle of Johnson CountyG Ohio river to Big SandyD G A beauty to behold like a diamond in the coalC All the miners they would gather 'roundG Talk about the man that came to townD Right under their noseG Stole the heart of the Van Lear RoseD Right under their noseG Stole the heart of the Van Lear Rose
