jean ritchie - old virginny lyrics
i was born in old virginny
to north carolina i did go;
i fell in love with a pretty fair maiden
and her name i did not know
her hair was of some brightsome color
her cheeks were of a rosy red
and in my heart i loved her dearly
many a tear for her i shed
to my heart you are my darling
at my door you’re welcome in;
at my gate i’ll meet you my darling
oh, if your love i could only win
when i am asleep i’m a-dreaming about you
when i’m awake i find no rest
and every moment seems like an hour
with aching pains all across my breast
i’d rather be in some dark valley
where that sun don’t never shine
than to see you another man’s darling
when i know that you should be mine
when i am dead and in my coffin
and my feet’s towards the sun
come and sit beside me darling
come and think on the way you done
