Carry me back to old Virginny
That`s where the cotton
And the corn and `tatas grow
That`s where the birds
Warble sweet in the spring time
That`s where the old darkey`s
Heart am longed to go
That`s where I laboured
So hard for old massa
Day after day
In the field of yellow corn
No place on earth
Do I love more sincerely
Than old Virginny
The state where I was born
