Lily Virginia

High up on the hillside above the Rice creek road
Lights a glow ‘fore sunrise
Yellow windows in a red brick home
Yellow windows in a red brick home
Someone listens over coffee for a car upon the road
Hey hey Lily Virginia’s comin’ home
Hey hey Lily Virginia’s comin’ home

At dawn the shops are closed and the town is feeling worn
Driving slow across the places
Woven like needles and thread
Woven like needles and thread
A small one by her side stares out the car window
Hey hey Lily Virginia’s comin’ home
Hey hey Lily Virginia’s comin’ home

Never mind that all the tongues go click and clack
Sometimes the best that you can do
Is to retrace your tracks

High up on the hillside above the Rice creek road
Lights a glow ‘fore sunrise
Yellow windows in a red brick home
Yellow windows in a red brick home
Someone listens over coffee for a car upon the road
Hey hey Lily Virginia’s comin’ home
Hey hey Lily Virginia’s comin’ home
