As the state song of Virginia, "Carry Me Back To Old Virginny" grew roots, giving it even more staying power than "Dixie," and for many of its supporters, an intractable nostalgia. Defenders of the song point out that it was written by a black man and recorded by a number of black artists, Louis Armstrong and Ray Charles among them.

Than old Virginny the state where I was born. Как старый добрый штат Виргиния, где я родился. Carry me back to old Virginny, Верните меня обратно в Виргинию, There's where I lived till I withered and decay, Туда, где я жил, пока не засох и не увял, Long by the old dismal swarm have I wandered, Где прошёл долгий тяжелый путь, There's where these old darkies' life I'm passed away.
