I met Virginia two summers ago
|
Up in them mountains teaching school
|
All alone in a one room shack
|
|
Teaching the children all she knew
|
We spent a lot of hours together
|
And one day she said she'd love me for all time
|
And I'm in love with my Virginia
|
And I hope she don't change her mind
|
We took a trip to Montana
|
Guess we were looking for gold
|
Never saw a trace of it
|
But it was everywhere we were told
|
Worked in a mine for thirteen hours every day
|
I took one look at my Virginia
|
And knew she wasn't meant to live that way
|
|
The going was rough
|
But she treated me so kind
|
I'm in love with Miss Virginia
|
And I hope she don't change her mind
|

|
Now we're back in Carolina
|
Up in them Smokies where we belong
|
Never knew why we went away
|
Can't understand why we were gone
|
Been with her twenty years
|
And all those years she made me feel so fine
|
And she still tells me that she loves me
|
And I hope she don't change her mind
|
And I hope she don't change her mind
|
