[Verse 1]
Back before these calloused hands and all this work
We used to sit up at the flats
Actin’ like we’d live forever
Gettin’ high and skippin’ class
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I reckon we were heathens
But in her eyes we were saints
Now you’re callin’ all the boys home
‘Cause heaven’s angels carried her away
[Chorus]
So I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord’s called home
I can see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines
[Verse 3]
Back when all us boys were tryin’
To make sense of all these strings
I can see her in the corner
Singin’ along to all our crazy dreams
[Chorus]
AndI will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord’s called home
I can see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines
[Verse 4]
I will follow you to Virgie
‘Cause that’s what us boys are for
To help you out when you get weary
And you can’t go no more
[Outro]
And can’t you see her up there, Cody
I can see her through the pines
Sayin’ “Boys be good”
