Here's my chance to say thank you to a place where

All my memories are fond and an essence of my heart

Waiting there with open arms

There's Melissa full of charm

How I miss her so, she's such a sight of love down in



Oh Virginia down the higway to 64

East way to Newport News

There you'll find an open door in

Oh Virginia all my friends are there to greet me

Just a smile down 64 along the open road



At the Patton Hotel I spent lots of time there

That's where we decided this is where we wanted to be

And down the road on Jefferson you'll find Steamer's close by

If you see Mark and Steve Breen

Tell 'em Jeff and I both said "hi"



But we were younger then never knowing then

That she would take us as her own

And make us part of her life

Highway to the sun we had so much fun

I can't wait to get there and tell 'em that I miss my second home



Oh Virginia down the way we'll be there in no time

Oh Virginia just a ride down 64

Oh Virginia I can see those signs from here

Oh Virginia 25 miles to Hampton Roads



We got friends in Yorktown we got friends in Williamsburg

We got friends in Newport News

We want all of y'all from Portsmouth sing

We got friends in Bluefield we got friends in Richmond

We got friends in Hampton Roads

And down by the beach let me hear everybody, yeah
