Proclaimed the International Ambassador of Country Music thanks to his performances around the world during the 1970s, George Hamilton IV began his career in the late '50s not as a country artist but as a teen-oriented pop star.

East Virginia lyrics | Reviewer: Nancy Slayton ------ About the song East Virginia performed by George Hamilton Iv (This is what I grew up singing in Missouri.) 1. I don't want you gree-back dollar, I don't want you silver chain. All I want is your love, sweet darlin', Won't you take me back again. 2. I was born in East Virginia, North Carolina I did go. There I met a fair young maiden, And her name I did not know. 3. Well her hair was dark of color, Cheeks, they were a rosy red. On her breast she wore white lillies, Where I long to lay my head. 4. At my heart you are my darlin', At my door you're welcome in. At my gate, I'll always meet you, You're the girl I tried to win. 5. I'd rather be in some dark holler, Where the sun would never shine. Than to see you with another, When you promised to be mine. Repeat 1.
