Come Back Home To Beckley

[@peggyhelminiak1659]

Homesick for a place I never lived. Would come to Beckley with my parents when they visited the Old Place (that my Grandpa built). Love those mountains!

[@damn12thishard]

I never lived in Beckley! but my family does from both sides WV will always be a second home to me!

[@barbarakaseysmith9588]

Beckley, West Virginia is a quaint and lovely place and I "still" consider it home - love lives in this town!

[@02cocobun]

I grew up in a suburb of Beckley, and I used to call Beckley, 'Bleakley'. But I was in Glen Morgan, what did I know about bleak? I return to Beckley every year from California to see my parents and friends. And the experience the mountains and rivers. My kids were born in California, but they are half West Virginian, and a quarter Beckley. They love WV. This video is hokey, a little corny, but a fun song. I liked it. Bravo!

I was born at Raleigh General hospital in 1972. Remember when they pulled the pavement off the bricks. And still love my home town!

72 LEO.... Welll... COVID19-2020 changed me into a Cougar🐯lol Raised in Coal City where mom is still hang'n out at 84💕

[@54nmiller]

I really enjoyed this, My parents are both gone but I still have their house on a hill in Mabscott. I have been gone 25 years now but I visited 2 times a year until my mom passed. I hope to come back soon as I still think of Beckley as home. My dad was the blind man that used to play the Hummingbird guitar in front of Murphy's and sing. I miss those days and Beckley will always be home in my heart.

[@XXKennedyKD5XX]

I've got an Aunt who live's in Beckley. This is an awesome song

[@tonymeademusic]

As a Beckley native who is now a rock musician in Denver, I was totally prepared to scoff and roll my eyes at anything that was produced back in my hometown... Boy, was I wrong. Now I've got this song stuck in my head!! Great job.

[@michaeltincher7321]

Tony Meade nobody gives a shit that you live in Denver lmao and nobody listens to your band around here because they suck. Keep that garbage back in Denver

[@DELSHATLEY]

Thanks Tony...Coming from a musician, that means a lot to me..I have been singing and writing for just a few years now...Trying to get better..Glad you enjoyed the song...Del Shatley

[@Db25865]

[@tomtruesdale2009]

I always like to come home. I would never have left if I had a choice. I come back every chance I get. PLilly

[@rbug1958]

Hi Del, thanks to "Beckley Life" magazine I found you and your song. Hipppee. I love this song. I remember those days of downtown Beckley very well. I taught piano lessons at Jan Campbell Music. I ate lunch at GC Murphy's, ate hot grilled donuts at a little diner (can't remember the name) walk down Main St. into the Hardware store and brose. Oh how I love this song. Keep up that talent and God Bless You.

[@1964GJH]

Don't kid yourself...they roll back the sidewalks at dusk. Quirky song, A++ for effort!

[@kathypennington4355]

Great song, Del. Very good job.

[@MikeElmore]

This is where I was born, but I never considered it my 'hometown' and I have no desire or intention to EVER return there! (but this song is really good!)

[@totsfrreal9038]

If Beckley was just what it used to be.... sad to see it now

[@Jfly913]

Nope. I'm good. I don't like being shot at or robbed

[@kargad3]

It is a shame so much of Beckley's history has been destroyed to put up gov't buildings and one great big bldg with the prominent family's name on it. Shame. I liked the old Murphy's better. Oh, well.
