West Virginia Woman

Lyrics

[Intro] Hmm, hmm-hmm-hmm Hmm, hmm-hmm-hmm [Verse 1] I was New York City bound When I left my old hometown But I got hung up like a fool Somehow along the way Lord God, her name was Sally She lived in the Kanawha Valley Just outside of Charleston, West Virginia, US of A [Verse 2] Sally done me down and dirty Really put that hurting on me Reckon how she must have got her kicks that way She turned me every way, but loose Blew my mind and she cooked my goose And stomped my Georgia soul into that West Virginia clay [Verse 3] Now I'm walking back to Georgia crying Lord I feel like I'm-a dying Everything I try to do right Seems to turn out wrong I met a gal from West Virginia That woman sure enough sent me home With my hat in my hand A humming some old worn out song Like a man whose mind is gone Haa, huh-huh-huh [Outro] Hmm-hmm-hmm Haa, huh-huh-huh
