West Virginia Chocolate Drop - Larry and His Flask

This dreary forest glooming over my head

I can hear them creep through the bushes and the trees

All around me dark and deep

That wretched pain stabbing at me from within

Oh it’s just an old familiar friend come to see me once again

And now it’s just you and me and there’s no one else around

Time to get to business

Put that hammer down

I’ve come this far and I sure ain’t gonna stop

For that West Virginia

Chocolate Drop

Somewhere atop that mountain lies a demon put to rest

And around him lie the pages of the book

Of his own poor lonesome death

And the memories that haunt me of that battle that we won

They rise and fall and sink and swell as sure as the pointed sun

And I’ll never let my guard down for I know they’ll come again

And I’ll never let them mess me, no

Gonna fight hard as I can

I’ve come this far and I sure ain’t gonna stop

For that West Virginia

Chocolate Drop

Lord take me back to that water

And I’ll let everything go

Lord guide me down from that mountain

Oh, I’m coming down slow

And now it’s just you and me and there’s no one else around

Time to get to business

Put that hammer down

I’ve come this far and I sure ain’t gonna stop

For that West Virginia

Chocolate Drop

Chocolate Drop!

Chocolate Drop!
