My Home Virginia

Carry me to my home Virginia Headed south through Arlington We can stop off in Manassas On our way to Lovingston Take me back to the Peaks of Otter Let's return to Mabry Mill We can drive the Blue Ridge Parkway From the Meadows of Dan to Charlottesville We'll stop in Schuyler on the way to Richmond Watch the trees on the mountain sway Ride the backroads of Campbell County And see the small towns along the way We'll raise some cane out in Bedford In a field over near the county line Ride the rails to Appomattox And stop by Mama's at suppertime We'll go cruise down the Eastern Shoreline We'll lay a blanket out on the sand Watch the ships sail out of Norfolk And stroll down the beach hand in hand Let's return back to our hometown We'll float down the mighty river James There we remember our favorite memories And visit with old friends at a cafe on Main Carry me back to little old Lynchburg No matter how far I may roam It's where I made my fondest memories I'm proud to call Virginia my home
