About

This track deals with the manifestation of tragedy within generations of a particular family. While it could be about the Civil War, the lyrics paint a broad enough picture that reasonably any particularly terrible thing, be it a death or illness, could be interpreted as “that old blind dog”.

Son of Virginia Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It was the morning of All Saints' Day, '98
When that old blind dog started roaming around the graveyard
Wouldn't have bothered me so much
Were he not walking on his hind legs and smoking cigars

[Chorus]
Recite my lineage and genealogy
You've got to know your history, Son of Virginia
Everybody's in the church believing they're a sinner
And looking for a sign from the True Son of Virginia

[Verse 2]
When the storm blew over, we made our way
To the old hay wain to infiltrate the sarcophagus
By the dim light of a narrow window, we saw
The God's honest truth staring right back at us

[Chorus]
Recite your lineage and genealogy
You've got to know your history, Son of Virginia
Everybody's in the church believing they're a sinner
And looking for a sign from the True Son of Virginia
Stare into the embers on the first of November
And remember you were born a True Son of Virginia

[Bridge]
I was thrown to the ground
As my world broke asunder
Truly, we are living in an Age of Wonder
Truly, we are living in an Age of Wonder

[Verse 3]
It was the morning of All Saints' Day, '98
When that old blind dog started calling me "associate"
Wouldn't have bothered me so much
Were it not for the fact that was the truth of it

[Chorus]
Recite our lineage and genealogy
You've got to know your history, Son of Virginia
Stare into the embers on the first of November
And remember you were born a True Son of Virginia

[Outro]
I was thrown to the ground
As my world broke asunder
Truly, we are living in an Age of Wonder
I wept like a child
As the son rose above her
Truly, we are living in an Age of Wonder
Truly, we are living in an Age of Wonder
