Chorus
Cover me up with the sunshine of Virginia
Beneath a blanket of blue, let me dreams the hours away
I’ll find my happiness there, where the skies are bluer
Happiness where ev’ry heart beats truer
Maybe I’ve been wrong, to stay away so long
Seems like I’ve traveled, wearily traveled millions of miles
Oh, mammy, keep lookin’ my way, light up the highway
With all your smiles, Oh, won’t you
Cover me up with the sunshine of Virginia
The sunshine of Virginia in your eyes
