WEST VIRGINIA MY HOME by Hazel Dickens

Chorus:

West Virginia, oh my home.
West Virginia, where I belong.

In the dead of the night, in the still and the quiet 
I slip away like a bird in flight
Back to those hills, the place that I call home.

It's been years now since I left there
And this city life's about got the best of me.
I can't remember why I left so free what I wanted to do, what I wanted to see,
But I can sure remember where I come from.

Chorus-----

Well I paid the price for the leavin'
And this life I have is not one I thought I'd find.
Just let me live, love, let my cry, but when I go just let me die
Among the friends who'll remember when I'm gone.

Chorus-----

Bridge:

Home, home, home. I can see it so clear in my mind.
Home, home, home. I can almost smell the honeysuckle vines.


Home?
