Dark and stormy weather
   It still inclines to rain
   The clouds hang over center
   My love's gone away on the train

We met loved and parted
I thought the world of you
You left me broken hearted
To me you proved untrue

I'm leaving old Virginia
There's nothing here for me
I know you love another
In the grave I'd rather be

You told me that you loved me
I believed just what you said
But now you love another
I wish that I was dead
