We were wed in the hills of ol' Virginia

We were happy there together all alone

But I strayed away from my darlin

Through this dark and stormy night I'm goin home

When the high wind blows from heaven

I whisper your name alone

I'm on my way back darlin'

As the midnight storm rolls on

When the cold dreary rain starts fallin

And the clouds hide the bright golden moon

As I see your face right before me

I can cry as I sing this lonesome tune
