In the lush Virginia hills they kept her as long as they could.
´Cause they knew when the white brother found,
White shell beads wrapped around her skin-
A life giving river- her body open, as will his hand.

And with a ´goodbye´ there she goes...

She may betray all that she loves,
And even wait for their Savior to come.
And in some things, maybe he´ll be right,
But as always the thing that he loves he will change from her,
(Alwyas, love, change.)
Sunwise to clockwise to soul trading,
(Sunwise, soul trading...)
Still she´ll lay down her body covering him all the same...
(Lay down, covering him.)

So hundreds of years go by, (the red road,)
She´s a girl out working her trade.
(Girl carved up by her sharp knife.)

And she loses a little each day to ghetto pimps and presidents.
Who try and arouse her turquoise serpents.
She can´t recall what they represent,
And when you ask, she won´t know.

She will betray all she loves,
And even wait for their Savior to come.
And in some things, maybe he´ll be right,
But as always the thing that he loves he will change from her,
(Alwyas, love, change.)
Sunwise to clockwise to soul trading,
(Sunwise, soul trading...)
Still she´ll lay down her body covering him all the same...
(Lay down, covering him.)

Oh... Virginia.
(Do you remember,)
You won´t even re-oh... Virginia.
(When the land held your hand...)
You won´t even re-
(When the land held your hand...)
Oh... Virginia, you won´t even re-
(She will let you back in.)
Oh... Virginia,
(Do you remember, oh...)
You can´t remember your name...
