Take me back Let me be I've been away too long But still indulge myself in flights of fancy Fancy me Trouble free Up against the wall But still inclined to thumb my nose at reason I'll get no change from time I'm spending Wasting all my life Surely, the never ending life is not for me But oh to see You care about My whereabouts You care about My whereabouts Time in hand Hand in glove I leave my borrowed friends For I was never meant to be a pilgrim Oh take me back to ol' Virginia Lay me on my bed of leaves Show me the love that's in ya Yes you're part of marriage My carriage awaits you Put your hand in my pocket And dance Put your hand in my pocket And dance But if I'd had a hand in past defense I'd know I'd make the most of friendship Or I would never come back home
