Turn the stern and point to shore, The seven seas won't carry us no more. Oh, to be home again, Down in old Virginny, With my very best friend, They call him Ragtime Willie. I can't wait to sniff that air, Dip'n snuff, I won't have no care, That big Rockin' Chair won't go nowhere. Hear the sound, Willie Boy, The Flyin' Dutchman's on the reef. It's my belief We've used up all our time, This hill's to steep to climb, And the days that remain ain't worth a dime. Oh, to be home again, Down in old Virginny, With my very best friend, They call him Ragtime Willie. Would-a-been nice just t'see the folks, listen once again to the stale jokes, That big Rockin' Chair won't go nowhere.
