Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Business of the Savitri

Mis明白

What is it

Miss Minaj have three minutes

Minaj have three minutes

Minaj have three minutes

Minaj have three minutes

Minaj have three minutes

Minaj have three minutes

Minaj have three minutes

Minaj have three minutes

Minaj have three minutes

Minaj have three minutes

[Verse 2]

Does where the cotton and the golden shaders grow

Does where the vines over sweet in the springtime

Does where the garden is hot and long ago

Does where all the birds go long for a mother

Day after day in the fields of yellow corn

No place on earth do I love more sincerely than old Virginia

The state where I was born

[Chorus]

Carry me back to old Virginia

Does where the cotton and the golden shaders grow

Does where the birds over sweet in the springtime

Does where the garden is hot and long ago

Carry me back to old Virginia

[Verse 3]

Da let me live till I wither and decay

Decay long by the old Isle of Swamp have I wandered

Does what is good of this life will pass away

But can we wait how long just before we soon we will meet on that bright and golden shore

Though we'll be happy and free from our sorrow

Just now we'll meet and we'll never part no more

[Chorus]

Carry me back to old Virginia

Does where the cotton and the golden shaders grow

Does where the birds over sweet in the springtime

Does where the garden is hot and long ago
