Going Back to Georgia

Going Back To Georgia - Nancy Griffith

Written by：Brian Claffin/Adam Duritz/Nanci Griffith

Oh the city snow makes your brown eyes shine

We've gotta look real hard to find a reason to cry

New York New York is a friend of the traveling kind

And I'm coming around from years of hard times

He's chased me down through the towns and the miles

Once stilled by love he was bound to roll on by

And if you feel my love won't leave you

And if your sorrow has been your share

If you are traveling back to Georgia

Won't you take me with you there

Well I'm long gone darling lonesome blue

I been thinking of leaving I been thinking of you

But that big city singing man I like the way that it shines

Ay I was half a mile from Canada waiting on a train

Wondering and wishing I could disappear again

I been killed by love till it takes me to the end of the line

And if you feel my love won't leave you

And if your sorrow has been your share

If you are traveling back to Georgia

Won't you take me with you there

Well I've been troubled by a love untrue

He's a fool who'll drown in his fountain of youth

I can see that now as I'm walking and talking with you

Well I been blinded by the sun washed in the rain

Scattered in America I'm scattering again

But if you're going south darling I guess I'm traveling with you

And if you feel my love won't leave you

And if your sorrow has been your share

If you are traveling back to Georgia

Won't you take me with you there

And if you feel my love won't leave you

And if your sorrow has been your share

If you are traveling back to Georgia

Won't you take me with you there

Take me with you

Oh won't you take me home

Yeah
