I went down to Virginia and no one sent for me |
|
I went down to Virginia to see what I could see |
|
Well, I found the horses fastest, and the girls look best |
|
The spirits of the states are guaranteed high test |
|
So, I stayed down in Virginia 'cause that looked good to me |
|
I went down to Virginia and I didn't know a soul |
|
No wonder folks befriend ya, their hearts are made of pure gold |
|
While the civic minded citizens are all so kind |
|
They see to it you hook a fish on every line |
|
So, I stayed down in Virginia, that's how much I've been so |
|
So, bless the day that brought me here |
|
And bless the folks I love so dear |
|
Well, brother, if you ever plan a-coming this way |
|
You find the things that's just exactly like I say |
|
And you stayed down in Virginia, Virginia, U.S.A. |
|
Yes, I went down to Virginia, I went by my request |
|
No one needs recommend ya, 'cause you are a welcome guest |
|
Well, I never thought I'd find a place where I could be |
|
Just happy as a jaybird in a cherry tree |
|
So, I stayed down in Virginia, 'cause that's the very best |
|
So, bless the day that brought me here |
|
And bless the folks I love so dear |
|
Why, I plumb forgot to mention 'bout the biggest deal |
|
My girl is named Virginia, that's Virginia real |
|
So, I stayed down in Virginia, Virginia, Virginia, U.S.A. |
