When I come home this dear old friend

Will welcome me back, once again.

There’s no other place I have found

That bids me rest, and settle down.

Come, sit a spell. Enjoy my peace.

Let your trouble and worry cease.

Drink in my beauty, if you will.

I am here for you, waiting still.

West Virginia- she welcomes me

Back to the place I need to be,

Where mountains, streams, and valleys see

The very best in memory.

West Virginia, I long for you,

Where dreams and wishes still come true.

West Virginia, so wild and free-

West Virginia is calling me.

I sometimes reflect on events,

What happened then, or happened since.

When I consider paths I’ve trod,

The best were there, in West, by God,

Virginia, where my heart found rest

And my spirit is truly blessed.

My feet have walked many trails-

So many that my mem’ry fails.

West Virginia- she welcomes me

Back to the place I need to be,

Where mountains, streams, and valleys see

The very best in memory.

West Virginia, I long for you,

Where dreams and wishes still come true.

West Virginia, so wild and free-

West Virginia is calling me.

I guess there’s much that can be lost

When you don’t stop to count the cost

Of being always on the go,

Or running out before you know

Where you will land when you take flight.

We need beacons to keep us right.

West Virginia has been the light

That led me home in dark of night.

West Virginia- she welcomes me

Back to the place I need to be,

Where mountains, streams, and valleys see

The very best in memory.

West Virginia, I long for you,

Where dreams and wishes still come true.

West Virginia, so wild and free-

West Virginia is calling me.
