Follow You to Virgie

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Back before these calloused hands and all this work We used to sit up at the flats Actin' like we'd live forever Gettin' high and skippin' class Yeah, I reckon we were heathens But in her eyes we were saints Now you're callin' all the boys home 'Cause heaven's angels carried her away [Chorus] 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 And I can see her up in glory I can see her through the pines [Verse 2] Back when all us boys were tryin' To make sense of all these strings I can see her in the corner Just singin' along to all our crazy dreams [Chorus] And I will follow you to Virgie Although it hurts me so To lay to rest this mountain beauty That the Lord's called home And I can see her up in glory I can see her through the pines [Verse 3] And 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 Sayin' "Boys be good"
