Frank Sinatra - I Went Down To Virginia lyrics

I went down to Virginia and no one sent for me I went down to Virginia to see what I could see Well I found the horses that some of the gals took bets The spirits of the states are guaranteed high sets So I stayed down in Virginia 'cause that looked good to me I went down to Virginia and I didn't know a soul No wonder folks befriend ya, their hearts are made of pure gold While the civic minded citizens are all so kind They feed you with you hook a fish on every line So I stayed down in Virginia, that's how much I've been sold So bless the day that brought me here And bless the folks I love so dear Well, brother, if you ever plan a'coming this way You find the things that's just exactly like I say I stayed down in Virginia, Virginia USA Yes, I went down to Virginia, I went by my request No one needs recommend ya, 'cause you are a welcome guest Well, I never thought I'd find a place where I could be Just happy as a jaybird in a cherry tree So I stayed down in Virginia, 'cause that's the very best So bless the day that brought me here And bless the folks I love so dear Why, I plumb forgot to mention 'bout the biggest deal My gal is named Virginia, that's Virginia real So I stayed down in Virginia, Virginia, Virginia, USA
