Retro Lyrics

 

BLUE VIRGINIA BLUE

 

Have you ever been to Richmond in November

When the cold Virginia rain is comin' down

Friend I'm here to tell you it's no pleasure

If you're all alone and a stranger to the town

Don't take me wrong I do like East Virginia

And Richmond's full of hospitality

Except for one Virginia girl I know of

That made a perfect love wreck out of me

 

Blue Virginia Blue

There ain't no blue like Blue Virginia Blues

There's no girls in the whole wide world

Can break your heart like Virginia girls

There ain't no blue like Blue Virginia Blues

 

She called me up in St. Paul Minnesota

Said I need you here in Richmond right away

Take the bus and I'll meet you at the station

Bring some clothes I might want you to stay

My bus pulled in the station late this evenin'

There ain't a soul around this place but me

She must have changed her mind or she's forgotten

And her name ain't in the phone directory

 

I wish I had the money for the taxi

A warm and cozy place to lay me down

Instead of standing all alone in Richmond

While the cold Virginia rain is coming down
