Gents to the middle said a young girl's fiddle
Para pria di tengah bilang biola gadis muda
and you ain't got nothin' to lose
dan kamu tidak punya apa-apa untuk kehilangan
Allemande right she can play it all night
Allemande kanan, dia bisa mainkan semalaman
she can fiddle off the bottom of your shoes
dia bisa mainkan dari bawah sepatu kamu

Chorus
Reff
Oh me, oh my, how she makes that bowhair fly
Oh, aku, oh, aku, bagaimana dia membuat busur itu melayang
How she hangs that music (crystal) in the air
Bagaimana dia menggantungkan musik (kristal) di udara

Promenade down to the lonesome sound
Berjalan santai menuju suara kesepian
of a whippoorwill in the night
dari burung whippoorwill di malam hari
Sashay back look at old mad Jack
Kembali melenggok lihat Jack tua yang marah
hugging everything in sight
memeluk segala sesuatu yang terlihat

Chorus
Reff

Banjo Bill he stopped stock still
Banjo Bill berhenti diam
as the notes came a'rolling by
saat nada-nada mengalir lewat
It filled his ears and eased his fears
Itu memenuhi telinganya dan meredakan ketakutannya
and a tear come to his eye
dan air mata mengalir di matanya

Chorus
Reff

The old string bass he lost his place
Bass tua kehilangan posisinya
and his arms they felt like steel
dan tangannya terasa seperti baja
The guitar man dropped both his hands
Pemain gitar menjatuhkan kedua tangannya
and he swore it was not real
dan dia bersumpah itu tidak nyata

Chorus
Reff

It's golden strings on eagle's wings
Ini adalah senar emas di sayap elang
to the callin' of the squares
menuju panggilan dari lapangan
There's fiddle tunes and there's fiddle tunes
Ada lagu biola dan ada lagu biola
but Virginia's splittin' hairs
tapi Virginia memisahkan hal-hal kecil

Chorus
Reff

She cast a spell no tongue can tell
Dia melontarkan mantra yang tak bisa diungkapkan
no prophet can reveal
tak ada nabi yang bisa mengungkapkan
Quiet as death hold your breath
Diam seperti kematian, tahan napasmu
she played Virginia's Real
dia memainkan Virginia yang Sebenarnya

Chorus
Reff
