lyrics
Jonny Burke (Dedpan Music, BMI)
chorus
won't you follow me darlin'
into the autumn
when the leaves turn late in the day
i've got a friend in austin
his sins sure did cost him
i don't want to end up that way
i pulled into carolina
could not have been feeling finer
all i found was sleet and snow and hail
so i made a beeline straight for the stateline
i spent a night in a carolina jail
chorus
maryland, my maryland
i thought you would be better than
all i left behind
but the songs they turned to ash
and you could not pay in cash
i left that state before i lost my mind
chorus
i was going to bethlehem, pennsylvania
i thought baby jesus would be waiting on me
but my baby's fame goes by another name
and i hope she is waiting on me
here i come sweet virginia set me free
