She was the Fbelle of Johnson county Ohio Friver to Big Sandy A Gbeauty to behold like a Fdiamond in the Fcoal All the Fminers they would gather 'round And Ftalk about the man that came to town Right Gunder their nose stole the heart of the Van Lear FRose Right Gunder their nose stole the heart of the Van Lear FRose
