[00:00:01] New Cut Road (Remastered Live Version) - Emmylou Harris

[00:01:02] Coleman Bonner was a fiddle playin fool

[00:01:06] He's a backwoods rounder and a breaker of mules

[00:01:10] Coleman Bonner's got a wore out bow

[00:01:13] He's been playin all day down the new cut road

[00:01:17] Coleman's little sister said you better act right

[00:01:21] Daddy's gone to Louisville he'll be back tonight

[00:01:24] He's gonna get another wagon and a good pair of mules

[00:01:28] And we gonna move to Texas we just waitin on you

[00:01:32] Coleman's daddy pulled up in the yard

[00:01:36] He said pack up your lives kids it's gettin too hard

[00:01:40] Kentucky's alright but there's too many people

[00:01:44] Just the other day I thought I saw a church steeple

[00:01:47] Coleman said daddy don't you worry bout me

[00:01:51] I'm gonna stay here in Kentucky till the day I d

[00:01:55] I'm gonna drink that sourmash and gonna race that mare

[00:01:58] And find that woman with the fox red hair

[00:02:02] Now you all been movin west since the day you got married

[00:02:06] Well I'm gettin off the wagon daddy I'm too old to be carried

[00:02:10] Gonna stay here in Kentucky where the bluegrass grow

[00:02:13] I'm gonna play it all night down the new cut road

[00:02:33] Coleman's daddy said now what's it all comn to

[00:02:36] Young people these days are just as stubborn as mules

[00:02:40] You can't make him go he's too old for that

[00:02:43] It's that damned old fiddle and that bowler hat

[00:02:48] Coleman's mama said let the boy stay

[00:02:51] He's raised up solid and he can find his own way

[00:02:55] But as for me honey I'm with you

[00:02:58] I always thought Kentucky was just passin through

[00:03:03] Coleman's little sister then she started into a cryi

[00:03:06] And his daddy shook his head for the very last time

[00:03:10] Coleman's mama said somebody's gotta do it

[00:03:13] Wouldn't be no Kentucky less you didn't stick to it

[00:03:17] Coleman Booner stood on the porch of that cabin

[00:03:21] Watched em all go to Texas in a covered wagon

[00:03:25] He pulled out his fiddle and he rosined up his bow

[00:03:28] And he played a little tune called the new cut road
