Текст песни Carry Me Back to Old Virginny - Ray Charles and His Orchestra

Carry me back to old Virginny
That's where the cotton and corn and taters grow
That's where the birds warble sweet in the spring-time
That's where this heart of mine, longs to go

Carry me back to old Virginny
There let me live till I wither and decay
Long by the old Dismal Swamp have I wandered
That's where this life of mine will pass away

Mother and father have gone before me
Soon we will meet on that bright and golden shore
There we'll be happy and free from all sorrow
And there we'll meet, and part no more
