Lyrics

I was born in East Virginny
 North Carolina I did go
 There I spied a fair young lady
 And her age I do not know
 Her hair was dark in color
 Her cheeks were rosy red
 Upon her breast she wore white lilies
 Where I longed to lay my head
 Oh, at my heart you are my darlin'
 At my door you're welcome in
 At my gate I'll always meet you
 For you're the girl I've tried to win
 I'd rather be in some dark holler
 Where the sun refuse to shine
 Than for you to be another man's darlin'
 And to know you'll never be mine
