'Mid The Green Fields Of Virginia

(álbum: The Carter Family Volume 1 - 1927-1934 - 2002)

'Mid the green fields of Virginny in the vale of Shenandoah
There's an ivy covered homestead that I love
With its white old fashioned chimney and its simple homelike airs
'Tis the home of my dear parents now above

There's a peaceful cottage there, a happy home so dear
My heart is longing for them day by day
Where I spent life's golden hours in the vale of Shenandoah
'Mid the green fields of Virginny far away

'Mid the green fields of Virginny stands an old mill by the stream
I would wander to that spot to sing and play
And how often I would throw a stone into the babbling brook
I would dream some day it'll carry me away

There's a peaceful cottage there, a happy home so dear
My heart is longing for them day by day
Where I spent life's golden hours in the vale of Shenandoah
'Mid the green fields of Virginny far away

There's a peaceful cottage there, a happy home so dear
My heart is longing for them day by day
Where I spent life's golden hours in the vale of Shenandoah
'Mid the green fields of Virginny far away
