Virginia

Earthquakes and hurricanes

And slow movin' freight trains

Girl, that's how

You make me feel sometimes

But you were gone away from here

So far, my dear

Up by that Northern state line

Virginia

Light up my broken dreams

You pick me up

And sure make me smile

Virginia

And I would give anything

To come dance around

My memory for awhile

Off in the moonlight

A sweet Southern moonlight

A billion stars

Bare feet in the sand

I'm countin' down the summer days

Smiling at our reckless ways

You was my girl

And I was your man

Virginia

Light up my broken dreams

You pick me up

And sure make me smile

Virginia

And I would give anything

To come dance around

My memory for awhile

That's the way the story goes

Of broken hearts and sad souls

You left me here

Not saying goodbye

Said you headed with your Paw

North Arkansas

But that was back before 1975

Virginia

Light up my broken dreams

You pick me up

And sure make me smile

Virginia

And I would give anything

To come dance around

My memory for awhile
