Follow You To Virgie

(album: Live On Red Barn Radio II - 2014)

Back before these calloused hands and all this work
We used to sit up at the flats
Acting like we'd live forever
Getting high and skipping class

Yeah, I reckon we were heathens
But in her eyes we were saints
Now you're calling all the boys home
'Cause heaven's angels carried her away

So I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord's called home
I can see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines

Back when all us boys were trying
To make sense of all these strings
I can see her in the corner
Singing along to all our crazy dreams

So I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord's called home
I can see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines

I will follow you to Virgie
'Cause that's what us boys are for
To help you out when you get weary
And you can't go no more

And can't you see her up there, Cody
I can see her through the pines
Saying "Boys be good"
