Every band that makes it big starts off with a “first hit” and I believe this is the one that got Pat and the boys on their way. In the early days, I saw Train in clubs and bars, some not much bigger than our family room. Now they play the stadiums.
Here’s to the weekend.
Meet Virginia
By Train
She doesn’t own a dress, her hair is always a mess
If you catch her stealin’, she won’t confess
She’s beautiful, she smokes a pack a day, wait that’s me, but anyway
She doesn’t care a thing about that, hey
She thinks I’m beautiful. Meet Virginia
She never compromises, loves babies and surprises
Wears hi-heels when she exercises
Ain’t that beautiful
Meet Virginia
Well she wants to be the Queen
Then she thinks about her scene
Pulls her hair back as she screams
I don’t really wanna be the queen
Her daddy wrestles alligators, Mama works on carburetors
Her brother is a fine mediator for the President
Well here she is again on the phone
Just like me hates to be alone
We just like to sit at home, and rip on the President
Meet Virginia
Well she wants to live her life
Then she thinks about her life
Pulls her hair back as she screams
I don’t really wanna live this life
She only drinks coffee at midnight, when the moment is not
Right, her timing is quite unusual
You see her confidence is tragic, but her intuition magic
And the shape of her body unusual
Meet Virgina I can’t wait to
Meet Virginia, yeah e yeah hey hey hey
Well she wants to be the queen and
Then she thinks about her scene
Well she wants to live her life
Then she thinks about her life
Pulls her hair back as she screams
I don’t really wanna be the queen
I, I don’t really wanna be the queen
I, I don’t really wanna be the queen
I, I don’t really wanna live this
I’m a big fan…
