| I was a-waitin' for my hair-cut, looking through my magazine
|
| When I’d come to a sign I nearly lost my mind, it said:
|
| We got the answer to your dreams
|
| Come on to Virginia City, hey, hey
|
| Everybody there is bound to have a happy day
|
| Well, I headed straight to it on the midnight train
|
| Fell asleep, a little later I heard somebody say
|
| Take a look, take a look at the rain
|
| Come on to Virginia City, hey, hey
|
| Everybody there is bound to have a happy day
|
| I then traded gold and silver, diggin' in that mine of mine
|
| Now I own a bunch of banks, my reputation ranks
|
| Higher, higher all the time
|
| Come on to Virginia City, hey, hey
|
| Everybody there is bound to have a happy day |
