Georgia Lyrics

Got a lot that I've been thinking of
as I walk the stairs to my Tennessee hotel
maybe we're just growing up
maybe mountains are the closest things to hell
and the records just as broken as it ever was.
I've lost my mind to think that it'll change.
so I put that needle down and just await that lonesome sound
it's the only thing I've got left in this town,
like the promise that I'd always be around.

So won't you come on back to Georgia
On your way to Caroline
Won't you come on back to Georgia
New York City seems too bright this time of year
this time of year

And the stairs I climb to meet me now
just go on and on
like some backwoods southern town
maybe this time I won't let me down.
God, I know that it's a long way home
I close my eyes now and all I see are roads.
yeah, all I know are roads
but you promised me I'd never be alone.

So won't you come on back to Georgia
On your way to Caroline
Won't you come on back to Georgia
New York City seems too bright this time of year
this time of year

Won't you come on back to Georgia
Leave your home for Caroline
Won't you come on back to Georgia
New York City seems just fine
But this time
I think I'll settle down, sweet Georgia
I don't love you, Caroline
I think I'll settle down, sweet Georgia
but New York City seems so right
this time of year

Got a lot that i've been thinking of
as i walk the streets in some new york city spell
maybe we're just growing up
maybe we just found the furthest thing from hell
and i couldn't tell you just how far i fell
