[LYRICS] Tyler Childers – Charleston Girl

See if you can figure out the proper words to Tyler Childers’ ‘Charleston Girl,’ starring The High wall. As the third track on his “Live On Red Barn Radio” CD, Tyler Childers released ‘Charleston Girl’ in October 2013.

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 Steele Brothers in a ‘fastgrass’ 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 talking 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 leaving West Virginia for a while
Don’t know why, but every time I cross that river, Lord
There’s something 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 leaving West Virginia for a while
Don’t know why but every time I cross that river
Lord, there’s something tears me up, makes me wild
