Hang around Willy Boy Don't you raise the sails anymore It's for sure That I spent my whole life at sea And I'm pushin' age 73 And there's only one place that was meant for me Oh to be home again Down in old Virginny With my very best friend They call him Ragtime Billy We're gonna sooth away the rest of our years We're gonna put away all of our tears That big rockin' chair won't go nowhere Slow down Willy Boy Your hearts gonna give right out on you It's true And I believe I know what I should do Turn the stern and point to shore The seven seas won't carry us no more Oh to be home again Down in old Virginny With my very best friend They call him Ragtime Billy I can't wait to sniff that air Dip and snuff I won't have no care That big rockin' chair won't go nowhere Hear the sound Willy Boy The Flyin' Dutchman's on the reef It's my belief That we've used up all of our time And the surf's to steep to climb And the days that we made are worth the time Oh to be home again Down in old Virginny With my very best friend They call him Ragtime Billy Would have been nice just to see the folks Missing once again to the stale jokes That big rockin' chair won't go nowhere Oh to be home again Oh to be home again Oh to be home again Oh to be home again
