Tyler Childers - Charleson Girl lyrics

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 Steel Brothers in a 'fastgra**' band One day I'm gonna drive up there And give them half my mind 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 knew what she was talkin' bout I wish to God that I could get away But I'm way too drunk to drive All I know is that when 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 and makes me wild Charleston girl with raven hair Bloodshot eyes and skin so fair I believe if I could find my keys I'd try to drive away I never planned to leave so soon I didn't know that he was sweet on you Go ahead and take her Cause she ain't worth the time All I know is that when 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
