Ezra Night & Mat​é​o Champlain - Virginia

from Super Hits: Demos (2016​-​2019) by Matéo Champlain

lyrics

I’ve dug down in your bones
Where I could hear your body moan
With the weight of your mountains
Cold and blue b

Down in the devils mine
It’s dark as night inside
You die as fast as the man who works
Beside you

I’ve been working night night and day
Trying to find some decent pay
Virginia
Why you doin me this way

I floated down the James
When it had a different name
Hauling tobacco
In my old bateau

With this map of animal hide
and the stars my only guide
I can hear the coyotes
Moaning low

I rotted in your cell so long
I forgot how to speak
and I’ll be older than the hills
By the time they set me free

I been locked up four years straight
I hope I’m not too late
To see the woman
Who used to lay beside me
