[Verse 1]
Charleston girl in a darkened room
And you don't know her like I do
We took the fire escape to her room
And got stone-raging blind
Left my money in the trusting hands
Of them old Steele Brothers in a fastgrass band
One day I'm gonna drive up there
And give them half my mind
[Verse 2]
I don't know if it's the wine or the coke
That makes her sound like her jaw is broke
She's working hard to make some sense
But she ain't got a dime
I wish to God that I could help her out
I wish I knеw what she was talkin' bout
I wish to God that I could get away
But I'm way too drunk to drive
[Chorus]
All I know is that whеn I am good and sober
I am leavin' West Virginia for a while
Don't know why, but every time I cross that river
Lord, there's somethin' tears me up, makes me wild
