<pre><font size='+2'>READIN  RIGHTIN  RT 23 lyrics DWIGHT YOAKAM</font><br>Chorus:<br />
They learned readin`, writin`, Route 23<br />
To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities` factories<br />
They learned readin`, writin`, roads to the north<br />
To the luxury and comfort a coal miner can`t afford<br />
They thought readin`, writin`, Route 23<br />
Would take them to the good life that they had never seen<br />
They didn`t know that old highway<br />
Could lead them to a world of misery<br />
<br />
Have you ever been down Kentucky-way<br />
Say south of Prestonburg<br />
Have you ever been up in a holler<br />
Have you ever heard<br />
A mountain man cough his life away<br />
From diggin` that black coal <br />
In those dark mines, those dark mines<br />
If you had you might just understand<br />
The reason that they left is all behind<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
They learned readin`, wrightin`, Route 23<br />
To the jobs that lay waitin` in those cities` factories<br />
They learned readin`, writin`, roads to the north<br />
To the luxury and comfort a coal miner can`t afford<br />
They thought readin`, writin`, Route 23<br />
Would take them to the good life that they had never seen<br />
They didn`t know that old highway<br />
Could lead them to a world of misery<br />
<br />
Have you ever seen `em <br />
Put the kids in the car after work on Friday night<br />
Pull up in a holler about 2 a.m. <br />
And see a light still shinin` bright<br />
Those mountain folks sat up that late<br />
Just to hold those little grandkids <br />
In their arms, in their arms<br />
And I`m proud to say that I`ve been blessed<br />
And touched by their sweet hillbilly charm<br />
<br />
Chorus:<br />
They learned readin`, writin`, Route 23<br />
To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities` factories<br />
They learned readin`, writin`, roads to the north<br />
To the luxury and comfort a coal miner can`t afford<br />
They thought readin`, writin`, Route 23<br />
Would take them to the good life that they had never seen<br />
They didn`t know that old highway<br />
Could lead them to a world of misery<br />
<br />
Yeah, it turns out that that old highway, <br />
Leads you to a world of misery<br />
<br />
They found out that that old highway<br />
Leads you to a world of misery...<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/readin_rightin_rt_23_lyrics-dwight_yoakam.html" target='_blank'>READIN  RIGHTIN  RT 23 lyrics DWIGHT YOAKAM</a></pre>

Chorus:
They learned readin`, writin`, Route 23
To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities` factories
They learned readin`, writin`, roads to the north
To the luxury and comfort a coal miner can`t afford
They thought readin`, writin`, 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 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`, wrightin`, Route 23
To the jobs that lay waitin` in those cities` factories
They learned readin`, writin`, roads to the north
To the luxury and comfort a coal miner can`t afford
They thought readin`, writin`, 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`, writin`, Route 23
To the jobs that lay waiting in those cities` factories
They learned readin`, writin`, roads to the north
To the luxury and comfort a coal miner can`t afford
They thought readin`, writin`, 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

They found out that that old highway
Leads you to a world of misery...
