  • The state song of Virginia, The Old Dominion.
    Lyrics in English:
    You’ll always be our great Virginia.
    You’re the birthplace of the nation.
    Where history was changed forever.
    Today, your glory status as we build tomorrow.
    I fill with pride at all you give us,
    Rolling hills, majestic mountains,
    From the Shenandoah to the Atlantic,
    Rivers wide and forests tall, all in one Virginia.
    For each of us here in Virginia,
    From farm to city dweller,
    All of us, we stand together.
    We’re yours, we all are yours,
    Across our great Virginia.
    You’ll always be our great Virginia.

      For the record, this song was only adopted in the 2010s. It was designed as a more politically correct replacement for the old state song.

    Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
    Away, you rolling river
    Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
    Today, I'm bound to go
    'Cross the wide Missouri
    Oh, Shenandoah, I love your daughter
    Away, you rolling river
    For her I cross your roaming waters
    Today
    I'm bound to go
    'Cross the wide Missouri
    'Tis seven long years since last I've seen you
    Away you rolling river
    'Tis seven long years since last I've seen you
    Today
    I'm bound to go
    'Cross the wide Missouri
    Oh Shenandoah, I'm bound to leave you
    Away, you rolling river
    Oh Shenadoah, I am bound to leave you
    Today I'm bound to go
    Across the wide Missouri

    As far as I'm concerned, Virginia stands above all other eastern states as to beautiful scenery, cheerful atmosphere and love of life!

      As a Virginian I can say half of that is true the cheerful atmosphere only exists in the eastern half of Virginia. The western half is still confederate

    Wasn't it "Carry me back to Old Virginny"?

      That was the old state song. This is the new song that replaced it because the other one was not politically correct!

      ​@@-Teague- Carry Me Back to Old Virginny was written by a free black New Yorker, but had the word "darkie" in it and talks about a master as well as the character's labor (obviously portrayed as a slave) so it didn't age well. Especially with the increasing diversity of Northern Virginia and military transplants to Hampton Roads.
