Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, Virginia, she only wants me in the summer
In the wintertime, she'll be with another
Oh, how lonesome I will be
[Verse 2]
Been cast off to sea
In the morning, light don't shine
And this life ain't worth a dime
[Verse 3]
Virginia
Quit knocking at my door
Sweet Virginia
Quit asking for more
[Verse 4]
Oh, Virginia, she only wants me when it suits her
She doesn't even see me in her future
Oh, how lonesome I've become
[Verse 5]
Haven't slept for days
Hear the rattle and the hum
She'll come crawling back in May
[Verse 6]
Virginia
Quit knocking at my door
Sweet Virginia
Quit asking for more
[Verse 7]
Oh, Virginia, she only wants me when she's hurt
She just loves to spend her time flirting
With all the boys around
[Verse 8]
It's making me so tired
I'm so lonesome and down
She's a cold-hearted liar
[Verse 9]
Virginia
Quit knocking at my door
Sweet Virginia
Quit asking for more
