East Virginia

I was born and raised in East Virginia
North Carolina I did go
There I met the prettiest little maiden
Her name and age I did not know

Her hair it was a light brown color
Her cheeks they were a ruby red
But on her breast she wore white lilies
Where I longed to lay my head

I'd rather be in some dark holler
Where the sun would never shine
Than to see her with another
And to know she'd never be mine
