Select language to translate this lyric
Back before these calloused hands did all this work
We used to sit up at the flats
Acting like we'd live forever
Getting high and skipping class
I reckon we were heathens
But in her eyes we were saints
Now you're calling all the boys home
As heavens angels carry her away
I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord's called home
Can't you see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines
Back when all us boys were trying
To make sense of all these strings
I can see her in the corner
Singing along to all our crazy dreams
I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord's called home
Can't you see her up in glory
I can see her through the pines
I will follow you to Virgie
Although it hurts me so
To lay to rest this mountain beauty
That the Lord's called home
Can't you see her up there, Cody?
I can see her through the pines
Saying boys be good
