My Virginia 1907

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 08 Sep 2005

Are you waiting for your lover,
what's the use, Virginia dear?
For they say he loves another
'way up north, Virginia dear;
he is false to you, my girlie
and he won't return, don't fear,
can't you love me just a little,
won't you try Virginia dear.

My Virginia, from Virginia
sweeter than the flowers that grow,
I am coming home to wed you,
let those folks all know,
don't you listen to
the tales they tell you,
don't you weep or sigh
for I love you, my Virginia,
love you till I die.

My Virginia, from Virginia
sweeter than the flowers that grow,
I am coming home to wed you,
let those folks all know,
don't you listen to
the tales they tell you,
don't you weep or sigh
for I love you, my Virginia,
love you till I die.

Are you sighing for your lover,
don't you cry, my little dear,
in his arms
he holds another
'tis not you, Virginia dear;
but she proudly says: "He's faithful,"
I can feel his presence near,
hearts are true in old Virginia
he will find me waiting here.

My Virginia, from Virginia
sweeter than the flowers that grow,
I am coming home to wed you,
let those folks all know,
don't you listen to
the tales they tell you,
don't you weep or sigh
for I love you, my Virginia,
love you till I die.

My Virginia, from Virginia
sweeter than the flowers that grow,
I am coming home to wed you,
let those folks all know,
don't you listen to
the tales they tell you,
don't you weep or sigh
for I love you, my Virginia,
love you till I die.
