The Hills of West Viriginia
Hills Of West Virginia
In the hills of West Virginia
That’s where you’ll find my heart
The place that I was born
The land that gave my start
In the hills of West Virginia
A family of ten made a home
Though many years have pasted
It’s still the place we roam
In the hills of West Virginia
It’s where I learned of God
The healer and protector
When things down here got hard
In the hills of West Virginia
I learned to work the land
Plowing and planting
With hard working hands
In the hills of West Virginia
I’ve seen new life come and go
Tears have fallen on flowers
And tears have fallen on snow
In the hills of West Virginia
I met my first true love
An angel in the flesh
Sent from God above
In the hills of West Virginia
I married and had a son
Another path on the road of life
In which I had begun
In the hills of West Virginia
I plan to live out my stay
Watching my son grow
While enjoying every day
