lyrics

Have you ever been to Richmond in November?
When the cold Virginia rain is coming down
Friends, I'm here to tell you it's no pleasure
When you're all alone and a stranger to the town

Don't get me wrong, I do like east Virginia
And Richmond's full of hospitality
Except for one Virginia girl I know of
That made a perfect love wreck out of me

Blue Virginia blue
There ain't no blue like blue Virginia blue
There's no girls in the whole wide world
That'll break your heart like Virginia girls
There ain't no blue like blue Virginia blue

Well, she called me up in Saint Paul, Minnesota
Said "I need you here in Richmond, right away"
"Take the bus and I'll meet you at the station"
"Bring some clothes I might want you to stay"

Well, my bus pulled in the station late this evening
And there ain't a soul around this place but me
She must have changed her mind or she'd forgotten
And her name ain't in the phone directory

Blue Virginia blue
There ain't no blue like blue Virginia blue
There's no girls in the whole wide world
That'll break your heart like Virginia girls
There ain't no blue like blue Virginia blue

Well, I wish I had some money for a taxi
Or a warm and cozy place to lie down
Instead of standing all alone in Richmond
When the cold Virginia rain is coming down

Blue Virginia blue
There ain't no blue like blue Virginia blues
There's no girls in the whole wide world
That'll break your heart like Virginia girls
There ain't no blue like blue Virginia blues
There's no girls in the whole wide world
That'll break your heart like Virginia girls
There ain't no blue like blue Virginia blues
