West VirginiaI got an email from West Virginia This girl I hadn't heard from in years Sent me a picture of the guy I used to be We floated down that ol' New River But somebody else took the plunge We drifted apart until she lost sight of me We had some high times back then All good things must come to an end Sort of majestic and kinda grand No place for a working man Chorus: Just because I punch a clock Doesn't mean I can't tell time It's too late for West Virginia North Carolina suits me fine I'm gonna write her back before long If my fingers can find the right words Maybe I'll send along a picture of my wife She looks like you but she's much nicer And she treats me like a million bucks What else do you want to know about my new life We had some high times back then All good things must come to an end Sort of majestic and kinda grand No place for a working man Chorus: Just because I punch a clock Doesn't mean I can't tell time It's too late for West Virginia North Carolina suits me fine Copyright Kent Newsome and Ronnie Jeffrey All Rights Reserved |
