[Chorus] West Virginia, oh my home West Virginia, where I belong In the dead of the night, in the still and the quiet I slip away like a bird in flight Back to those hills, the place that I call home [Chorus] West Virginia, oh my home West Virginia, where I belong In the dead of the night, in the still and the quiet I slip away like a bird in flight Back to those hills, the place that I call home [Verse] Sing the hymns we sang together In that plain little church where the benches are worn How dear to my heart, how precious the moment We stood shaking hands and singing our song [Verse] Precious father, loving mother Fly across the lonely years And oh, home scenes of my childhood In my memory appear Precious memories, how they linger How they ever flood my soul In the stillness of the midnight Precious sacred scenes unfold [Chorus] Home, home, home In the dead of the night, in the still and the quiet I slip away like a bird in flight Back to those hills, the place that I call home (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo)
