作曲:

Hang around Willie boy

Don't you raise the sails anymore

It's for sure I've spent my whole life at sea

And I'm pushin' age seventy-three

Now there's only one place that was meant for me:

Oh to be home again

Down in old Virginny

With my very best friend

They call him Ragtime Willie

We're gonna soothe away the rest of our years

We're gonna put away all of our tears

That big rockin' chair won't go nowhere

Slow down Willie boy

Your heart's gonna give right out on you

It's true and I believe I know what we should do

Turn to stern and point to shore

The seven seas won't carry us no more

Oh to be home again

Down in old Virginny

With my very best friend

They call him Ragtime Willie

I can't wait to sniff that air

Dip that snuff I won't have no care

That big rockin' chair won't go nowhere

Hear the sound Willie boy

The Flyin' Dutchman's on the reef

It's my belief

We've used up all our time

This hill's to steep to climb

And the days that remain ain't worth a dime

Oh to be home again

Down in old Virginny

With my very best friend

They call him Ragtime Willie

Would'a been nice just to see the folks

Listen once again to them stale old jokes

That big rockin' chair won't go nowhere

I can hear something callin' on me

(And you know where I wanna be)

Oh Willie can't you hear that sound

(Down in old Virginny)

I just wanna get my feet back on the ground

(Down in old Virginny)

And I'd love to see my very best friend

They call him Ragtime Willie

(Oh to be home again)

I believe old rockin' chair's got me again
