Blue Virginia Blues
Artist: Larry Sparks
Have you ever been to Richmond in November
When the cold Virginia rain is coming down
Friends I’m here to tell you it’s no pleasure
If you’re all alone and a stranger to this town.
Don’t take me wrong I do like East Virginia
And Richmond’s full of hospitality
Except for one Virginia girl I know of
That made a perfect love wreck out of me.
Chorus:
Blue blue Virginia blues
There ain't no blue like blue Virginia blues
There's no girls in the whole wide world
Will break your heart like Virginia girls
There ain't no blue like blue Virginia blues
She called me up in St. Paul Minnesota
Said I need you here in Richmond right away
Take the bus and I’ll meet you at the station
Bring some clothes I might want you to stay.
My bus pulled in the station late this evening
There ain't a soul around this place but me
She must have changed her mind or she’s forgotten
And her name ain't in the phone directory.
Chorus
I wish I had the money for a taxi
A warm and cozy place to lay me down
Instead of standin’ all alone in Richmond
While the cold Virginia rain is comin’ down.
