Early in the morning when the sun chill blows |
|
the trees whisper what a beautiful show |
|
I look out over this mountain land |
|
I hear the echos of the battle at hand |
|
I sip my coffee and I wonder why |
|
People stand the test of time |
|
I'll be coming round the mountain when there's fire on the hill |
|
Dressed in fighting armor with no weapon but my will |
|
I'm gonna be somebody like an eagle I will soar |
|
Thank God for West Virginia, thank God I'm a southern boy |
|
Early in the morning when I shake my head |
|
I can see grandpa there in that field of his |
|
he made this living so I could see |
|
that this land was meant for you and me |
|
I'll be coming round the mountain when there's fire on the hill |
|
Dressed in fighting armor with no weapon but my will |
|
I'm gonna be somebody like an eagle I will soar |
|
Thank God for West Virginia, thank God I'm a southern boy |
|
I have seen the sky turn red to blue |
|
I believe my daddy's coming and yours is too |
|
We'll be coming round the mountain when there's fire on the hill |
|
Dressed in fighting armor with no weapon but our will |
|
We're gonna be somebody that's what we're fighting for |
|
Thank God for West Virginia, thank God I'm a southern boy |
|
Thank God for all he's given, thank God I'm a southern boy |
