East Virginia (trad.) I was born and raised in East Virginia North Carolina I did roam And there I met the fairest maiden Her name and age I do not know Her hair it was of a light brown color Her cheeks they were of a rosy red And on her breasts she wore white lilies Where I long to lay my head I'd rather be in some dark 'holler' Where the sun don't never shine Than to see he wed another And to know that she's never be mine I was born and raised in East Virginia North Carolina I did roam And there I met the fairest maiden Her name and age I do not know 1998 McGuinn Music - Roger McGuinn |
