lyrics

VIRGINIA

Well, I watched you as you walked into the room
You didn’t know that I was there
You talked a little louder
You worked the room without a care

Girl I’d wait all night till you stopped talking
I draped your shoulders with a shawl
I walked you home in the darkness
I tried to kiss you, but you stalled.

You’ve got a good man, Virginia
But you don’t seem to care
You’ve got a good man, Virginia
You just can’t find us anywhere

Well, those city lights they kept calling
You left Jackson in a whirl
You left my heart broke and battered
To make your way a city girl

Well, I tried to find myself some distractions
I have to say you had some gall
You said you’d come back forever,
But you never really called.

You’ve got a good man, Virginia
But you don’t seem to care
You’ve got a good man, Virginia
You just can’t find us anywhere


Everyone says that I’m dreaming.
A girl like you she’s out of reach
What they say lord it don’t matter
Cause it won’t change what I believe

You’ve got a good man, Virginia
But you don’t seem to care
You’ve got a good man, Virginia
But, you just can’t find us anywhere

You’ve got a good man, Virginia

about

The Highballers Washington D.C., D.C.

"Songs about hard-drinking, crime, sex, heartache and the seamier side of life comprise the core of The Highballers’ music. The band’s sweet savory harmonies meld flawlessly with the twang of Fender telecasters. The Highballers’ brand of country can’t be pigeon-holed into one type of sound; their music is rough and tumble and at the same time can be evocative and haunting."
