[00:07.36]Lyrics by：Old Crow Medicine Show
[00:14.73]Well I come from the valley I'm a rebel boy
[00:16.32]Born on the banks of the Shenandoah
[00:18.08]In sixty-one I went to the war
[00:19.79]To win one for Virginia
[00:28.66]Ya my brother went first and they called me to
[00:30.32]I was green as clover in the morning dew
[00:32.18]So I marched to the drum and I sang to the tune
[00:34.09]Carry me back to Virginia
[00:35.89]Fire in the cannon water in the well
[00:37.6]Raced through the valley with a rebel yell
[00:39.33]I learned right quick how to march
[00:40.78]Like hell and affix that bayonet
[00:42.78]Won't ya carry me back
[00:44.73]Won't ya carry me back
[00:46.47]Carry me back to Virginia
[00:53.57]With a sword and a saddle
[00:54.76]Powder in the gun
[00:55.42]We thought for a minute our fight was done
[00:57.1]So they lined us up to the metals arm
[00:58.67]And hammered us into the quicksand
[01:00.54]Then they burned that valley in a blaze of fire
[01:02.22]Cut through the lands like a red hot iron
[01:03.82]'Til the men took cover where the horses piled
[01:05.71]Then we shivered and then hold against them
[01:07.46]But the war raged on like flames of hell
[01:09.29]We dug through the pockets of the ones who fell
[01:11.09]Dressed in rags and we ate that grass
[01:12.59]When they cut off our legs we cried
[01:14.62]Won't ya carry me back
[01:16.38]Won't ya carry me back
[01:18.18]Carry me back to Virginia
[01:20.01]Won't ya carry me back
[01:21.68]Won't ya carry me back
[01:23.46]Carry me back to Virginia
[01:49.61]And they died in the valley
[01:50.91]Died in the swamp
[01:51.759995]On the banks of the river where the whitetail jumped
[01:53.479996]Died in the ditches
[01:54.29]Died in the fields
[01:55.2]In the belly of a wagon for a woman's to heal
[01:56.97]Died in the war
[01:57.72]Starved in the camps
[01:58.72]Locked in the prisons of a meaner man
[02:00.48]Spilled our blood in the fight to defend
[02:02.23]And to bury the tome of a-dixieland
[02:03.97]Down in Alabama
[02:04.95]Down in Caroline
[02:05.84]Way down in Gerogie on the Tennesee line
[02:07.48]We fought for the rebels and Robert E Lee
[02:09.35]Now we want to go home to Virginia
[02:10.85]Say we want to go home to Virginia
[02:13.91]Won't ya carry me back
[02:15.56]Won't ya carry me back
[02:17.3]Carry me back to Virginia
[02:19.12]Won't ya carry me back
[02:20.81]Won't ya carry me back
[02:22.62]I wanna be buried in Virginia
