Lyrics for Tecumseh Valley by Earle Steve:

the daughter of a miner
And her ways were free and it
seemed to me
The sunshine walked beside her
She come from Spencer 'cross the
hill
She said her Pa had sent her
'Cause the coal was low and soon the snow
Would
tuwn the skies to winter
Well she said she'd come to look for work
She was not
seeking favors
For a dime a day and a place to stay
She'd turn those hands to
labor
The times were hard Lord the jobs were few
All through Tecumseh
Valley
But she asked around and a job she found
Tending bar for Gypsy Sally
She saved
enough to get back home
When spring replaced the winter
But her dreams were denied her Pa
had died
The word came down from Spencer
She turned to, whorin' out on the
streets
With all the lust inside her
It was many a man returned again
To lay himself
beside her
Well they found her down beneath the stairs
That led to Gypsy
Sally's
In her hand when she died
Was a note that cried
Fare thee well Tecumseh
