I know a place where we can go
The music's mediocre and the lights stay low
In the winter if you're lucky, it might even snow
Down in Virginia, baby
The people in the country can get pretty mean
A crazy woman called me nigger made me wanna scream
But my anger never bought me a single thing
Down in Virginia, baby
When I was older I took a trip to the North
You'll never guess what I found
The liberals are under the impression that racism is
No longеr around
I'll take it down to the South
See what you think of me now
No, I'm not ovеrreacting
I'm just hurting 'cause my past is such a nightmare
I'm so glad that I'm out
Out of Virginia, baby
Out of Virginia, baby
Casual hatred fills the air
We're running out of time, and I'm starting to care
If we let this girl continue, we'll be drowning dead
Down in Virginia, baby
These people never thought that we'd get nowhere
They took one look and then they started to cower in fear
Ain't it funny how deep down they just very scared
Of being bested, baby?
But here's the thing that you did as a way of coming to light
And things are starting to change
So even though we've been through hell, justice survived
They lost a battle today
There is no reason to wait
I'm digging heartache of grave
If you think that sounds dramatic, take a look at all the havoc
We've endured to make it into today
Down in Virginia, baby
Down in Virginia, baby
