When it's springtime down in Georgia It's winter time up in Maine You can go from snow to sunshine If you board a southbound train You get used to taking orders But it's sometimes kind of rough I got everything that a man could need But it still ain't quite enough
Taking about oh Georgia take me to your Southlands I sometimes feel my life is rolling on Oh Georgia lead me through your heartlands I need to see them one more time before I'm gone
When it's nighttime down in Georgia It's daytime in L.A. Where they never seem to do much But they sure got lots to say The times are changing down in Georgia Though not always for the best Give me thirty five good acres lord And let progress take the rest
Talking about oh Georgia take me to your Southlands I sometimes feel that life is rolling on Oh Georgia lead me through your heartlands I need to see them one more time before they're gone
Oh Georgia take me to your Southlands I sometimes feel that life has passed me by Oh Georgia lead me through your heartlands I need to see them one more time before I die --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
