West Virginia was almost Heaven
Well, not quite Heaven, but close to it
Drinking, laughing, we stuck together
Though years go by, we haven't changed a bit

Oh we had a blast, working hard, and playing fast
Working, singing, all of us brimming with youth

But we knew it wouldn't last, heading home; now it's in the past
Take us back to where we were riding high
Not for all time, just for a day and a night
Show us Heaven, show us how to be free, again
But, almost Heaven is not what you need for a life

West Virginia was almost Heaven
Well, not quite Heaven, but near enough
Walking, talking we stuck together
Years go by now we're in the rough
