Leave Virginia Alone

Well, I chased her down the alley

And over the hill to steal her away

She was as hot as Georgia asphalt

When the aircraft came to adore her brain

So leave Virginia alone, leave Virginia alone

She's not like you and me

She's not like you and me

You shoulda seen her back in the city

Poetry and jewels, broke all the rules

She was as high as a Georgia pine tree

Makeup and pills, overdue bills

So leave Virginia alone, leave Virginia alone

She's not like you and me

She's not like you and me

Some sunny day when the hands of time have gone their way

Oh, yeah, you'll understand why it was so hard to run away

Run away

She's a loser, she's a forgiver

She still finds good when no one could

You oughta want her more than money

Cadillacs and rust, diamonds and dust

So leave Virginia alone, leave Virginia alone

She's not like you and me

She's not like you and me

Oh, yeah, leave Virginia alone, leave Virginia alone

She's not like you and me

She's not like you and me

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, oh, oh, leave her alone

Ooh, ooh, oh, Virginia

Oh, Virginia, leave her alone
