VERSE]
TRAVELIN DOWN THIS OLD ROAD ONE LAST TIME
LEAVING WHAT WE NEED TO LEAVE BEHIND
IT SEEMS LONGER THAN BEFORE BUT I SEE IT ALL THE MORE
THAT WELL BE HAPPY JUST TO SEE THAT ENDING SIGN
TRAVELIN DOWN THIS OLD ROAD ONE LAST TIME
WELL, MY FRIENDS AND I TOOK A RIDE ACROSS THE DIXIE LINE
BUT BROKE DOWN IN THE HILLS OF VIRGINIA
AND WHEN WE SPENT A NIGHT OR TWO
HOPING FATE WOULD PULL US THROUGH
I SWEAR, IT TOOK ABOUT EVERYTHING WE HAD
UNTIL, WITH A LENDING HAND CAME A SURE VIRGINIAN LAD
[CHORUS]
Oh, why virginia
whyd you give us all this rain
since we left our home behind us
everybodys done the same
oh, virginia, oh, virginia
oh, virginia, oh, virginia
[VERSE]
NOW THIS OLD ROAD PUT A HOLD ON ROCK N ROLL
LEAVING US JUST OUTSIDE THE TOLL
AND WHEN OUR BIG CHANCE CAME ALONG
ALL WE HAD WAS THIS OLD SONG
OF HOW WE LOST OUR SHIRTS IN ONLY THREE DAYS TIME
TRAVELIN DOWN THIS OLD ROAD ONE LAST TIME
[CHORUS]
WITH EVERYTHING THATS HAPPENED
WE CANT SAY ITS BEEN A THRILL
CAUSE WERE SITTING DOWN IN RICHMOND
WITH OUR LAST TEN DOLLAR BILL
oh, virginia, oh, virginia
oh, virginia, oh, virginIa
