Neil Sedaka - Wheeling, West Virginia Lyrics

Laurel to Sunset, freeway to Culver
Racin' my MG down to MGM
Sittin' in make-up tryin' to wake up
Gotta be on the set at eight AM

For one more day of make believin'
One more day of playin' the star
One more day of endless pretendin'
Do ya know who you are?

Where is the guy from Wheelin' West Virginia
Why did he have to roam
So far away from Wheelin' West Virginia
Thousands of miles from home

Lawyers' fees and agents' commission
Everybody's waitin' to be fed
Uncle Sam is right there beside you
Come on boy, ya got to make the bread

For one more day of make believin'
One more day of playin' the star
One more day of endless pretendin'
Do ya know who you are?

Where is the guy from Wheelin' West Virginia
Why did he have to roam
So far away from Wheelin' West Virginia
Thousands of miles from home

Culver to freeway, Sunset to Laurel
Racin' my MG back from MGM
Early to bed to be up at dawnin'
Gotta be on the set at eight AM

For one more day of make believin'
One more day of playin' the star
One more day of endless pretendin'
But that's all you are

Gone is the guy from Wheelin' West Virginia
Gone is the world he used to know
There's no such place as
Wheelin' West Virginia it faded long ago

Da da da, da dada, da da da da
Da da da, da dada, da da da da
A la la, la la, la la la, lalala
Da da da, da dada, da da da da
A la la, la la, la la la, lalala
