David Allan Coe West Virginia Man Lyrics

corrections welcome (especially with those lyrics; some are hard to hear).
INTRO: E 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
Mow the grass, prune the peach trees, bend 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
Read a story to my baby I'm a West Virginia Man
I work in the sawmill 8 hours a day
Eat supper, read the paper put up a 100 bales of hay
Run off a batch of moonshine relax next to the fan
Chew tabacco sing a firin' song I'm a West Virginia Man
West Virginia man, alright
I hear you, alright
BREAK
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, pick the beans sow some hayseed
Check the muskrat traps down by the creek
'Fore it gets late I can pick a pack of apples that my woman wants to can
Take my youngest son our huntin' I'm a West Virginia man
Work in the sawmill 8 hours a day
Eat supper, read the paper, put up a hundred bales of hay
Run off a batch of moonshine relax next to the fan
Chew tobacco sing a firin' song I'm a West Virginia man
West Virginia man, alright
Ahhh, well alright
Ahhh, alright
I hear ya now, alright
Have mercy, alright
