Heading East to West Virginia

I met her down in Morgantown, it was last December

I fell in love so I bought her a ring

I never thought I'd see the day I'd be leavin' Texas

With all my things and cross that Mississippi

Headin' east to West Virginia

I told that girl that I'd be there and I said what I mean

She called me on the phone and told me 'boy, I miss ya'

That's why I'm headin' east to West Virginia

When I left Dallas, it was cold and stormy

Rain so hard that I could barely see

But if it takes me all day and night, I'll be there by mornin'

I ain't wastin' time she's countin' on me

Headin' east to West Virginia

I told that girl that I'd be there and I said what I mean

She called me on the phone and told me 'boy, I miss ya'

That's why I'm headin' east to West Virginia

Headin' east to West Virginia

I told that girl that I'd be there and I said what I mean

She called me on the phone and told me 'boy, I miss ya'

That's why I'm headin' east to West Virginia

She called me on the phone and told me 'boy, I need ya'

That's why I'm headin' east to West Virginia
