Sweet Virginia, where have you gone?
Sweet Virginia, you left me all alone
Why did you leave me?
Why couldn’t you stay?
Oh, Sweet Virginia, why did you go away?
Did you go back to the city
Where your folks still stay?
Did you move out to the country
Or somewhere far away?
Lord, I’ve cried and cried most every night
Ever since you’ve been gone
Sweet Virginia, why did you leave me alone?
Sweet Virginia, where have you gone?
Sweet Virginia, you left me all alone
Why did you leave me?
Why couldn’t you stay?
Oh, Sweet Virginia, why did you go away?
Sweet Virginia, where have you gone?
Sweet Virginia, you left me all alone
Why did you leave me?
Why couldn’t you stay?
Oh, Sweet Virginia, why did you go away?
