I Went Down to Virginia

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 that some of the gals took bets
The spirits of the states are guaranteed high sets
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 gold
While the civic minded citizens are all so kind
They seed with you hook a fish on every line
So I stayed down in Virginia
That's how much I've been sold
So bless the day that brought me here
And bless the folks I love so dear
Well brother if you ever plan a coming down this way
You find the things that's just exactly like I say
And you stayed down in Virginia Virginia USA
So bless the day there brought us here
Then bless the folks we love so dear
Well I never thought I'd find a place where I could be
Just happy as a jaybird in a cherry tree
I stayed down in Virginia Virginia USA
