East Virginia Blues Lyrics
I was born and raised in East Virginia
North Carolina I did go
And there I met the fariest maiden
Her name and age I do not know
Well, her hair it was of a light-brown color
Cheeks they were a ruby red
And on her breast she wore white lilies
Where I longed to lay my head
Well, I'd rather be in some dark hollow
Where the sun would never shine
Than to see you with another

And to know you'd never be mine
(Repeat first verse)
