Review about Del Reeves songs

Son of a Coal Man | Reviewer: Linda Lou Perry-Adsit
    ------ About the song Son Of A Coal Man performed by Del Reeves

I originally submitted these lyrics, and have since remembered tidbits of an additional verse. I have no copy of the song, can't find it anywhere,not even youtube, so this is just from memory. And I haven't heard it in decades.

The missing verse has a line that goes like this:

"But Daddy is stubborn, he won't quit believin' someday they'll reopen up the mines."

It will come to me. I'll submit the correction then, or should anyone out there have it, perhaps they can.

Meanwhile, I'll try Youtube one more time.

Thanks.
Linda
