Текст (слова) песни: Dwight Yoakam - Readin`, Rightin`, Route 23

Readin`, (Dwight Yoakam)

Chorus:
They learned readin`, rightin`, Route 23
To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities` factories
They didn`t know that old highway
Could lead them to a world of misery

Have you ever been down Kentucky-way
Say south of Prestonburg
Have you ever been up in a holler
Have you ever heard
A mountain man cough his life away
From diggin` that black coal in those dark mines, those dark mines
If you had you might just understand
The reason that they left is all behind

Chorus:
They learned readin`, rightin`, Route 23
To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities` factories
They learned readin`, rightin`, roads to the north
To the luxury and comfort a coal line can`t afford
They thought readin`, rightin`, Route 23
Would take them to the good life that they had never seen
They didn`t know that old highway
Could lead them to a world of misery

Have you ever seen `em put the kids in the car after work on Friday night
Pull up in a holler about 2 a.m. and see a light still shinin` bright
Those mountain folks sat up that late
Just to hold those little grandkids in their arms, in their arms
And I`m proud to say that I`ve been blessed
And touched by their sweet hillbilly charm

Chorus:
They learned readin`, rightin`, Route 23
To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities` factories
They learned readin`, rightin`, roads to the north
To the luxury and comfort a coal line can`t afford
They thought readin`, rightin`, Route 23
Would take them to the good life that they had never seen
They didn`t know that old highway
Could lead them to a world of misery
Yeah, it turns out that that old highway, leads you to a world of misery
