Everybody's trying to find pie in the sky eternal life
Ponce de Leon must have had it wrong the secret of life is a state of mind
Well in a state like this it's easy to miss the timber for the trees
But if you stay en route that old fountain of youth
Might be anywhere you please
There's a spot I know off the beaten road, a town without a name
Where the river flows and life just goes on living it's own way
Well it might not be for everyone but all are welcome in
And you just might find a little peace of mind
When you come up around the bend
So I'm going sweet Virginia where they cannot follow me
Where the hills ain't been all carved up and the highway doesn't reach
Only God knows where I'm going and on this me and her agree
It's so hard to find a place left in this world for feeling free
But I got mine in Nameless, Tennessee
Everybody's just looking for themselves up there on the silver screen
Like we're all trying to act like movie stars
But we don't know beluga from Boyardee
I don't need none of that Virginia when you're lying here next to me
So let's cut the lights hell cut the power and get back to the real thing
See I'm going sweet Virginia where they cannot follow me
Where the hills ain't been all carved up and the highway never reached
Only God knows where I'm going and on this me and her agree
It's so hard to find a place left in this world for feeling free
But I got mine in Nameless, Tennessee
