Then I had a family Virginia, I guess she forgot about me
She lives near the concrete sea or so people say
I don`t remember much about her gentle touch
My skin just turned so hard and my feet turned to clay
CHORUS

you get what you pay for there man you get it in spades
Just Disney`s America Virginia she chose to stay
and we drifted apart like runoff into the Chesapeake Bay
