Well I chased her down the alley

And over the hill to steal her will

She was as hot as Georgia asphalt

When the "A" crowd came to adore her brain



(Chorus)

So leave Virginia alone

Leave Virginia alone

She's not like you and me

She's not like you and me



You should've seen her back in the city

Poetry and jewels, broke all the rules

She was as high as a Georgia pine tree

Makeup and pills, overdue bills



(Chorus)



Some sunny day when the hands of time

Have had their way

You'll understand why it was so hard to run away



She's a loser she's a forgiver

But she still finds good where no one could

You ought to want her more than money

Cadillacs and rust diamonds and dust



(chorus) 2x
