I was born and raised in East Virginia
North Carolina I did go
Where I met a fair young maiden
Her name and age I do not know
Her hair was a lightsome color
Her lips a rosy red
On her breast she wore white flowers
Where I longed to lay my head
I rather be in some dark holler
Where the sun refused to shine
Than to see you be another man's woman
And to know you¹d never be mine
I was born in East Virginia
North Carolina I did go
Where I met a fair young maiden
Hеr name and age I still don¹t know
