  • EAST VIRGINIA
  • Joan Baez
  • I was born in east Virginia
  • North Carolina I did roam
  • There I met a pretty fair maiden
  • Her name and age I do not know
  • Her hair it was of a brightsome color
  • And her lips of a ruby red
  • On her breast she wore white lilies
  • There I longed to lay my head
  • Well in my heart you are my darling
  • And at my door you're welcome in
  • At my gate I'll meet you my darling
  • If your love I could only win
  • I'd rather be in some dark holler
  • Where the sun refused to shine
  • Than to see you another man's darling
  • And to know that you'll never be mine
  • Well in the night I'm dreaming about you
  • In the day I find no rest
  • Just the thought of you my darling
  • Sends aching pains all through my breast
  • Well when I'm dead and in my coffin
  • With my feet turned toward the sun
  • Come and sit beside me darling
  • Come and think on the way you done
