Nora Brown - East Virginia lyrics

Artist: Nora Brown

album: Cinnamon Tree


I'm from old east Virginia
North Carolina I did go
I met a fair young maiden
Her name I did not know

Oh, don't that road look rough and rocky?
Oh, don't that sea look wide and deep?
Don't my darlin' look much sweeter
When she's in my arms asleep?

Her hair was a dark brown, curly
Her cheeks were chestnut red
On her breast she wore white lilies
Through the night, the tears she shed

Captain, captain, I am dyin'
Won't you take these words for me?
Take 'em back to old east Virginia
Tell my darlin' she is free
