INTRO: E A
[A]I can plow the lower forty acres, feed the chickens, slap the hogs, fix the drainpipe
Pick the guitar and never lose no time
[E]Mow the grass, prune the peach trees, b[A]end that dow stake that was broken by that
friend a mine
Still find time of an evenin' to go fishin on the river, put a fence around my land
[E]Read a story to my baby I'm a West Virginia Man
[A]I work in the sawmill 8 hours a day
[E]Eat supper, read the paper put up a 100 bales of hay
[A]Run off a batch of moonshine relax next to the fan
[B]Chew tabacco sing a firin' song I'm a W[A]est Virginia Man
West Virginia m[E]an, alr[A]ight
I h[E]ear you, alr[A]ight
BREAK
[A]I can milk a hundred head of cattle, chop the firewood, shoe the horses, paint the barn
Pack the roof to make sure it won't leak, p[E]ick the beans sow some hayseed
Check the mu[A]skrat traps down by the creek
'Fore it gets late I can pick a pack of apples that my woman wants to can
[E]Take my youngest son our huntin' I'm a West Virginia man
[A]Work in the sawmill 8 hours a day
[E]Eat supper, read the paper, put up a hundred bales of hay
[A]Run off a batch of moonshine relax next to the fan
[B]Chew tobacco sing a firin' song I'm a We[A]st Virginia man
West Vir[E]ginia man, alr[A]ight
[E]Ahhh, well alr[A]ight
[E]Ahhh, alr[A]ight
I h[E]ear ya now, a[A]lright
Have m[E]ercy, al[A]right
