All the wheels keep on rolling
I start thinkin about their sin
Singin songs about the kinnland
I don't miss the families of ten
And I htink it's a sin, yes

Well, I think it's wrong to sing about her
But I hear so many people put her down
I hope Virginians will remember
Real men don't need family around anyhow

Sweet Home West Virginia,
Where your brother is your paw,
Sweet Home West Virginia,
Where your sister is your maw

In Virginny, there's no governor
So many women named Sue,
This normally does not bother me,
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth.

Sweet Home West Virginia,
Where your brother is your paw,
Sweet Home West Virginia,
Where your sister is your maw

Now, the gene pool needs some moppers
'Cuz they've been known to marry in the family too.
Not all are like this and such
But, that's the assumption of the crew,
Now how about you?

Sweet Home West Virginia,
Where your brother is your paw,
Sweet Home West Virginia,
Where your sister is your maw

Sweet Home West Virginia
Incestual family
Where the tree ain't true
Mostly 'cuz of all the Sues
Sweet Home West Virginia
Lordy
Lord, I'm sorry for all you
Yea, Yea, Virginia ain't got the answer
