Sweet Virginia Belle

========

Fairer than the golden morning,
Gentle as the tongue can tell,
Was our little laughing darling;
Sweet Virginia Belle.

Chorus:
Bright Virginia Belle!
Our Dear Virginia Belle!
She bereft us
When she left us;
Sweet Virginia Belle!

How we used to roam together
O'er the mountain, through the dell,
In the smiles of springtime weather,
Sweet Virginia Belle!

While her life was in its morning
Came a sad solemn knell,
She was taken without warning,
Sweet Virginia Belle!
