lyrics

In the misty, dewy morning; in the Smoky foothills, see?
In the misty, dewy morning; in the Smoky foothills, see?
Babe, I'm almost back home; I'm almost back to thee
In the misty, dewy morning; in the Smoky foothills, see?

You one good girl, Virginia, and I'll make me a wife of you
You one good girl, Virginia, and I'll make me a wife of you
If you're as fertile as you look, you'll bear a child or two
You one good girl, Virginia, and I'll make me a wife of you

Now you tell those nosy hill-folk I said, "look the other way,"
Yes, you tell those nosy hill-folk I said, "look the other way,"
If you're a little young, babe; who are they to say?
Now you tell those nosy hill-folk I said, "look the other way,"

You as bright as the sunshine, as mysterious as night
You as bright as the sunshine, as mysterious as night
And you've done something to me; you've done something right
Girl, you as bright as the sunshine, as mysterious as night

My latest incarnation has me playing out often, sometimes touring, and writing and recording consistently. ... more
