Im Folgenden finden Sie einige (ältere) von der Old Virginny Jazzband eingespielte Titel - mit Banjo und teilweise mit Schlagzeug - als Downloads zur Kostprobe! Hören Sie rein - wir freuen uns, wenn es Ihnen gefällt. Ansonsten gibt's uns nur "live".....

'Carry Me Back To Old Virginny' ist dabei der Titel, der der Band den Namen gegeben hat.

Hier der Text, geschrieben von James Bland:

Carry me back to old Virginny,

There's where the cotton and the corn and tatoes grow,

There's where the birds warble sweet in the springtime,

There's where the old darke'ys heart am long'd to go,

There's where I labored so hard for old massa,

Day after day in the field of yellow corn,

No place on earth do I love more sincerely

Than old Virginny, the state where I was born. 

CHORUS

Carry me back to old Virginny,

There's where the cotton and the corn and tatoes grow,

There's where the birds warble sweet in the springtime,

There's where this old darkey's heart am long'd to go. 

Carry me back to old Virginny,

There let me live 'till I wither and decay,

Long by the old Dismal Swamp have I wandered,

There's where this old darke'ys life will pass away.

Massa and missis have long gone before me,

Soon we will meet on that bright and golden shore,

There we'll be happy and free from all sorrow,

There's where we'll meet and we'll never part no more.
