Carry me back to old Virginia.
There's where the cotton and corn and taters grow.
There's where the birds warble sweet in the spring-time.
There's where this old heart of mine does long to go.

That's where I labored so hard for my father
Day after day in the field of yellow corn;
No place on earth do I love more sincerely
Than old Virginia,, the state where I was born.

Carry me back to old Virginia,
There let me live till I wither and decay.
Long by the old Dismal Swamp have I wandered,
There's where this old heart of mine does long to go.

Father and Mother have long gone before me,
Soon we will meet on that bright and golden shore.
There we'll be happy and free from all sorrow,
That's where we'll meet and we'll never part no more.
