Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well I was born in Old Virginia
South Carolina, I did go
And there I caught a pretty woman
But her age I did not know
Well her hair was brown and curly
And her cheeks were rosy red
And on her breast she wore white lilies
Oh, the tears I have shed
[Verse 2]
I'd rather be in some dark holler
Where the sun never shines
Than for you to be another man's darling
When you ain't no longer mine
[Verse 3]
And when I'm asleep, I'm dreaming 'bout you
And when I wake I have no rest
And every moment seems like an hour
Oh, the pain rose though my breast
[Verse 4]
I'd rather be in some dark holler
Where the sun never shines
Than for you to be another man's darling
When you ain't no longer mine
[Verse 5]
Papa says I must not marry
But mama says it'll never do
But little girl, if you are willing
I will run away with you
[Verse 6]
I'd rather be in some dark holler
Where the sun never shines
Than for you to be another man's darling
When you ain't no longer mine
[Verse 7]
Well I was born in Old Virginia
South Carolina, I did go
