Hey, honey, won't you sit down 
And stop here for a spell 
Singin' the sweet old lullabies 
To forget about your health 
Don't think about tomorrow 
It's a whole night's sleep away 
Sure would be pleased to have you stay 

And it's reach out old Virginia 
Won't you rock him close to you 
The poor boy's had a hotel so long 
He don't know what to do 
It's time to come on home 
And put your feet up for a while 
So much travlin' 'round tends to take away your smile 

'Pears to me it's all a body can do to stay in tune 
And you've been strainin' at those strings 
From mornin' till noon 
So come on down and hang around 
It'll put you right real soon 
'Cause nothing's changed 
It's all the same 

Reach out old Virginia 
Won't you rock him close to you 
The poor boy's had a hotel so long 
He don't know what to do 
It's time to come on home 
And put your feet up for a while 
So much travlin' 'round can take away your smile 

Reach out old Virginia 
Won't you rock him close to you 
The poor boy's had a hotel so long 
He don't know what to do 
It's time to come on home 
And put your feet up for a while 
So much travlin' 'round can take away your smile
