"The Ballad of Mark Warner" is a bluegrass song written and performed by Bluegrass Brothers in 2001 for the gubernatorial campaign of Mark Warner.

Role in the 2001 Virginia Gubernatorial election

The song was the official campaign song of Warner's 2001 gubernatorial campaign, and was commissioned by Warner's campaign manager Steve Jarding. The song was considered an essential part of Warner's outreach to rural Virginia, with the lyrics emphasizing Warner's understanding of the culture of that part of the state.
