^GShe never could give up the homestead on the fa^Drm Where they handed off tobacco in the big tobacco b^Garn,

And the long straight road that ran from the house down to the road

That w^Dent to AP Carter's Store, down the logging truck she r^Goad. Oh, sh^Ce'd sit and she'd gaze at the foggy mountain t^Gop Where the sw^Dift hawk circled 'round the Clinch Mountain ro^Gcks. At the sch^Cool down in Hiltons, she'd read about the wo^Grld Cre^Dated to be conquered by this Poor Valley Gi^Grl.

^GHer mother was an Addington, from over Copper Cr^Deek Her father was of sturdy stock, she was royal but m^Geek.

Her laughter was infectious, her music was pure joy.

And sh^De'd win the hearts of many men, as she had many a b^Goy. ^GHer mother became famous, Maybelle and her gu^Ditar With sisters Helen and Anita, the family was four st^Gar.

She gave the world two daughters, and a son with auburn curls

And I tha^Dnk God that he gave me this sweet Poor Valley G^Girl. Oh, sh^Ce'd sit and she'd gaze at the foggy mountain t^Gop Where the sw^Dift hawk circled 'round the Clinch Mountain ro^Gcks. At the sch^Cool down in Hiltons, she'd read about the wo^Grld Cre^Dated to be conquered by this Poor Valley Gi^Grl.
