VIRGINIA
I walked right up to you
Said how do you do
You said what took you so long boy
Don’t you know I been waiting on you
I knew I had to have you
Since I first laid eyes on you
I knew I had to have you
I knew I had to have you
From the start
Oh, Virginia
You put your name on my heart
I put my lips to you
You slapped one right back on me
Said come a little bit closer boy
I got somethin’ I want you to see
Why waste our precious time
With formality
Once I got to know you
I knew we would throw down
What you got to show me
Yo
I think I’ll stick around
Things been gettin’ so hot
We might ignite this town

CAN’T GET OVER YOU (MY MUSE)
I was thinkin’ about you last night
About how I screwed you over
And if you were alright
And it’s true you were always mine to lose
And I can’t get over you
I guess I owe you and apology
Everybody
Everybody saw it but me
And it’s true I got nothin’ left to prove
But I can’t get over you
You came in like a lion
You went out like a lamb
I guess you’re just that kind of girl
And I’m just that kind of man
That can’t get over you
I guess maybe I will see you around
This Christmas when I’ll be back in town
And it’s true you have always been my muse
I just can’t get over you

SARAH
When’s the last time I’ve written you a song
Been so long been so long
And I haven’t seen Sarah
Since she’s been gone
Sarah—plain and tall
It’s Sarah or no one at all
Sarah—I’m tellin’ y’all
It’s Sarah or no one at all
Sarah she had a baby
Sarah ran wild all her life
This little Sarah went whee whee whee
And this little Sarah’s my wife
When’s the last time I seen Sarah smile
Been quite a while quite a while
And Sarah’s got a way with hers
Like a prisoner’s got a way with a file

ISN’T THAT THE WAY
Well I gave you my heart but you took it for granted
The way you treat me these days babe I can’t hardly stand it
I gave you all I had but you wanted more
I thank you very kindly show yourself to the door
Isn’t that just the way some people are
Well I bent down turn around to pick up your slack
You put a knife smack dab in my back
After all this time I thought I knew you
It just shows to go there’s not a lot you can do
Well I had a little faith but that’s all gone
How many more times can you do me wrong
Good friends are good friends when the good times roll
When the times get tough out the door they go
Isn’t that just the way some people are

I MISS YOU
I miss you
And your silly little ways
Talkin’ all the time
Cleanin’ ‘round the house on Sundays
I miss you
A little more every day
And if I kissed you
You’d be coming back home to stay
I miss you
And I swear I’ll change my ways
You won’t have to tell me to shut my mouth
Or watch the stupid things that I say
Two hearts broken
The pieces suspended in time
I miss you
I miss you sometime
Two hearts lonely
Remember when you were mine
I’m sorry babe
I just miss you sometime
Two hearts cold
Don’t worry I’ll be fine
I just miss you
I just miss you sometime
I miss you
And that’s all I have to say
‘Cause you know I love you
Don’t you babe
