Virginia to hang my hat in
From the time I held my first guitar
I knew that's where I'd be
So one foggy mountain morning,
I bet my mama cried a river as
we stood there on the porch
She said, I know you don't like preach
ing from your daddy and me
But here's some good advice to keep
Just remember where you come from
No matter where you're at
And the wind at your back
There's simple rules to follow
If you know them all by heart
Live right, love true, and pray hard
So with a couple hundred dollars
Lord, I made it across the mountain and
through the few tough years that passed
And I played some lonely ballrooms to
people smokin' whiskey stoned
And sometimes I let the devil lead
Georgia, to the shores of
Those words my mama told me,
Just remember where you come from,
no mat ter where you're at
Lord in your mind and the
There's simple rules to follow,
if you know them all by heart
Live right, love true, and pray hard
Mama, sometimes the lines
And black and white can bleed
But all I can do is the best I
And remember where I come
from no matter where I'm at
Those simple rules you gave me,
they've gotten me this far
Live right, love true, and pray hard
Live right, love true, and pray hard
