sweet virginia

I see no way

How to smile while I fight the pain

Momma said it'd be all okay

Them sunny days they gon' be on the way

Keep the faith, boy

It's been 365 since I been to my hometown

Lost touch with some friends I don't know how

Wonder how they been, hope we make amends

So when we're older we can catch up on the time we missed

No matter where I go

Try to fly high through the lows

Didn't have too much, but it was all we know

Good god I pray, find my way back home

Sweet Virginia, Sweet Virginia

I know it's been too long

If I die in LA, bury me back home

Lord knows when I'll go, keep saying I'ma right my wrongs

Before I fly away, just let me take that road to

Sweet Virginia, Sweet Virginia

I know it's been too long

If I die it's okay, just bury me back home

Lord knows when I'll go, keep saying I'ma right my wrongs

Before I fly away, let me take that road

Back to the place I love

From the northside of Virginia

But the southside show me love

Had to get it out the mud

Came out through the storm

Nobody gave me nothing

Had to get it on my own, see

Out in Caicos for like five days in a villa I done seen it all

Got ten toes in the water

But memories of my father

And all the time we spent, make these good times feel harder

It was all good back then, I don't want more I need the road

I need hope in these times alone

Drive back to the place, where I first found love

We didn't have too much, but it was all we know

Good god I pray, I find my way back home

Sweet Virginia, Sweet Virginia

I know it's been too long

If I die in LA, bury me back home

Lord knows when I'll go, keep saying I'ma right my wrongs

Before I fly away, just let me take that road to

Sweet Virginia, Sweet Virginia

I know it's been too long
