I remember the face of an angel, A love that was faithful and trueI left that dear girl in the mountains, For a ramblin' life empty and blueSweet roses bloom where they're planted, Wild flowers seed on the windThat valley was closer to heaven, Than any place this poor fool's beenIt's a far cry from here to VirginiaBut I've crawled every inch of that groundMy teardrops fall like rain on the roofOf that blueridge home where I'm boundThis old highway is a ribbon of lonesome, I don't care where I lay my head downVirginia has died broken-hearted, My poor mountain darlin' is goneIt's a far cry from here to VirginiaBut I've crawled every inch of that groundMy teardrops fall like rain on the roofOf that blueridge home where I'm boundYeah, my teardrops fall like rain on the roofOf that blueridge home where I'm bound Aus Songtexte Mania
