Remember the day
When I hopped the freight train
Took me away
From this struggle and pain
Rolled off this coal stack
Through valleys and plains
You know I did that
Then I came back home again

Went to the city
I just don't get the draw
So many people
You can't breathe at all
Millions of strangers
That won't even nod
Nothing but asphalt
Think they paved right over god

There ain't no place like Appalachia
You always miss it when you're gone 
Touched by the soul and the heart of Appalachia
Ain't no embrace like the one

Died in the mines
And we died of the coal
Killed in the mountains
And the Harlan County War
Now mountains are killed
By the coalmine company
Once was a blessed life
Now just misery

There ain't no place like Appalachia
You always miss it when you're gone 
Touched by the soul and the heart of Appalachia
Ain't no embrace like the one

High in the mountains
No train come no more
Here is no future
There is nothing in the store
Oh It's a hard life
N´troubles fill my day
Sure ain't no Eden
But you still wanna stay

There ain't no place like Appalachia
You always miss it when you're gone 
Touched by the soul and the heart of Appalachia
Ain't no embrace like the one

There ain't no place like Appalachia
You always miss it when you're gone 
Touched by the soul and the heart of Appalachia
Ain't no embrace like the one
