[Verse 1]
I'm leaving Virginia
Back to where I belong
I can't remember
The last time I gone

There's blue skies and women
And liquor so strong
Angels and Devils
To carry me on

[Chorus]
So come closer, Angeline
We'll go in the mornin'
We'll be home tonight

[Verse 2]
Old worn out feelings
And yesterday's news
Just give me something
That I can use

My boots are forgiven
The valley's a lie
And all these words talkin'
Mean nothin' tonight
[Chorus]
So come closer, Angeline
We'll go in the mornin'
We'll be home tonight

[Verse 3]
I left my pillar
Out on the road
It's a desolate place
But you've been there before

There's a town by the river
It's where I was born
And I died on a hillside
All tattered and torn

[Chorus]
Come closer, Angeline
We'll go in the mornin'
We'll be home tonight

So come closer, Angeline
We'll go in the mornin'
We'll be home tonight
