Raining in Roanoke by Carolina Blue Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, Virginia is for lovers, and Lord knows you've had aplenty
But you weren't supposed to love them, while you was a-lovin' me
I can't shake these blues, and I can't forget these memories
So I'm leavin' rainy Roanoke for sunny Tennessee
[Chorus]
It's rainin' in Roanoke, and I'm leavin' here this mornin'
It's cloudy in Virginia, as far as I can see
But the blues ain't gonna follow to the place where I am goin'
For the sun is always shinin' way down in Tennessee
[Verse 2]
Well, I may stop off in Bristol, and I may head down to Nashville
Might go to the Opry with the first girl I see
Wе'll have us a good time down wherе the sun is shinin'
'Long as she ain't from Virginia, that'll be alright with me
[Chorus]
It's rainin' in Roanoke, and I'm leavin' here this mornin'
It's cloudy in Virginia, as far as I can see
But the blues ain't gonna follow to the place where I am goin'
For the sun is always shinin' way down in Tennessee
[Chorus]
It's rainin' in Roanoke, and I'm leavin' here this mornin'
It's cloudy in Virginia, as far as I can see
But the blues ain't gonna follow to the place where I am goin'
For the sun is always shinin' way down in Tennessee
Well, Virginia is for lovers, and Lord knows you've had aplenty
But you weren't supposed to love them, while you was a-lovin' me
I can't shake these blues, and I can't forget these memories
So I'm leavin' rainy Roanoke for sunny Tennessee
[Chorus]
It's rainin' in Roanoke, and I'm leavin' here this mornin'
It's cloudy in Virginia, as far as I can see
But the blues ain't gonna follow to the place where I am goin'
For the sun is always shinin' way down in Tennessee
[Verse 2]
Well, I may stop off in Bristol, and I may head down to Nashville
Might go to the Opry with the first girl I see
Wе'll have us a good time down wherе the sun is shinin'
'Long as she ain't from Virginia, that'll be alright with me
[Chorus]
It's rainin' in Roanoke, and I'm leavin' here this mornin'
It's cloudy in Virginia, as far as I can see
But the blues ain't gonna follow to the place where I am goin'
For the sun is always shinin' way down in Tennessee
[Chorus]
It's rainin' in Roanoke, and I'm leavin' here this mornin'
It's cloudy in Virginia, as far as I can see
But the blues ain't gonna follow to the place where I am goin'
For the sun is always shinin' way down in Tennessee
