Sweet Virginia

by Canaan Smith

Lyrics
Left Virginia for a Tennessee dream on the day that I turned 18
81 through the Shenandoah Valley had me second guessing everything
Should I go, should I stay?
Hell, you'd be with me either way

Sweet Virginia, you're always on my mind
Sweet Virginia, I go there all the time
They say that you're for lovers
And I'd have to agree
'Cause there ain't never been another ever loved me
Like sweet Virginia

I've been singing songs and every single one of them's got a line or two about you

Your roots run deep as a dogwood tree, you're in everything that I do
Maybe gone, but never far
Home is always where you are

Sweet Virginia, you're always on my mind
Sweet Virginia, I go there all the time
They say that you're for lovers
And I'd have to agree
'Cause there ain't never been another ever loved me
Like sweet Virginia

And I miss your summers on the river
Mountains in the winter
Leavin' you has always been bitter

Sweet Virginia, you're always on my mind

Sweet Virginia, I go there all the time
They say that you're for lovers
And I'd have to agree
'Cause there ain't never been another ever loved me
Like sweet Virginia
Sweet Virginia
