I remember the face of an angelA love that was faithful and trueI left that dear boy in the mountainsFor a round that I've empty and blueSweet roses bloom where they're plantedWildflowers seedon the windThat valley was closer to heavenThan any place this poor fool's beenIt's a far cry from here to VirginiaBut I'd crawl every inch of that groundMy teardrops fall like rainOn the roofOf that blue ridge homeWhere I'm boundThis highway's a ribbon of lonesomeDon't care where I lay my head downMy Virginia boy died brokenheartedMy sweet mountain darling is goneIt's a far cry from here to VirginiaBut I'd crawl every inch of that groundMy teardrops fall like rainOn the roofOf that blue ridge homeWhere I'm boundYeah, my teardrops fall like rainOn the roofOf that blue ridge homeOf that blue ridge homeWhere I'm boundAnd the snow on the looseOf that blue ridge homeI just wanna drinkWith that little girlAnd go from their caresI'm gonna thinkThey've got that freshPopped loveWith meEvery dayAnd flyWhen my friendThinks of a honeyI goodAnd youBut I won'tI'm feelingThank you.Thank you.
