Trip Shakespeare

Away!



On the lawn I fell to dreaming

And the dark just whirled around me

All the brighter plans are buried

Drunk now, Virginia's married



Seven dresses bent around me

Seven girls, the maids of honor

And they took the cup I carried

Drunk now, Virginia's married



Seven men went in to hear the band

All laughing, I can't understand

Drunk now, Virginia's married



And they may say that you must stay

But you must make your plans to get away

And you may say that I must stay away!



On the steps I fell to darkness

And her friends came out around me

But I saw the darkness only

Drunk now, I will be lonely
