Artist/Band: Brothers Four
Lyrics for Song: East Virginia
Lyrics for Album: 36 All-time Folk favorites [2000]



Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do.



I was born in east Virginia

North Carolina I did go

There I loved a fair young maiden

Whose age and name I did not know.



Oh, her hair was dark and curly

And her cheeks were rosey red

On her breast she wore a liliy

Where I longed to lay my head.



I don't want those greenback dollars

I don't want no golden chain

In this world there is no treasure

That can bring her back, again.



Take me to that borrowed fortune

And carve my name upon a stone

Tell the world how much I love her

And how I died for love alone.



I was born in east Virginia

North Carolina I did go

There I loved a fair young maiden

Whose age and name I did not know.



Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do...
