“Sweet Virginia”, is a sweetly clamoring acoustic number reflects both the country music influence Gram Parson imparted upon Keith at the time and the drug-induced atmosphere at Nellcôte during the recording of Exile.

Jagger’s harmonica and Mick Taylor’s masterful acoustic guitar work flow innocently alongside a drug-smuggling man’s lyrical plea for love.

"
I wanted to release Sweet Virginia as kind of an easy listening single."
- Keith Richards, 1972
