Verse
I knew virginia once she was a pretty girl
She walked in the wild fields and swam the wild streams
I took her out one day to the civil war battlefield
Way down in manassas where I told her my dreams
Chorus
But now its disneys america a long way from anywhere
With a brand new coat to wear with a brand name on the seams
Just disneys america virginia she chose to stay
And we drifted apart like runoff into the chesapeake bay
Verse
Then I had a family virginia, I guess she forgot about me
She lives near the concrete sea or so people say
I dont remember much about her gentle touch
My skin just turned so hard and my feet turned to clay
Chorus
It was in disneys america a long long way from anywhere
You get what you pay for there man you get it in spades
Just disneys america virginia she chose to stay
And we drifted apart like runoff into the chesapeake bay
You cant get too excited you cant get too enthused
From dismal land to the tragic mountain we are not amused
Yeah I knew virginia once she, she was a pretty thing
She walked in the wild fields and swam in the wild streams
Chorus
But now its disneys america thats where we collect our pay
Where we drifted apart like runoff into the chesapeake bay
Yeah we drifted apart like runoff into the chesapeake bay
