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 WE’LL 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

why’d you give us all this rain

since we left our home behind us

everybody’s 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 THAT’S HAPPENED

WE CAN’T SAY IT’S BEEN A THRILL

‘CAUSE WE’RE SITTING DOWN IN RICHMOND

WITH OUR LAST TEN DOLLAR BILL

oh, virginia, oh, virginia

oh, virginia, oh, virginIa
