Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- Come and sing dear old Virginia’s name
And make the Blue Ridge roar
For the world yields honor to her name
Who knew her deeds of yore - Then make each heart a flowing bowl
And pour our pledges strong
As down the ages still we roll
Virginia’s triumph song - Once more our might has won the fight
We gain the victor’s due
And all men raise their voice to praise
The Orange and the Blue - So, through the years, like Cavaliers
We’ll shout Virginia’s name
It e’er shall be on land and sea
A sign of might and fame
