The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia (格鲁吉亚灯火熄灭之夜) - Ameritz Tribute Standards

Written by：Bobby Russell

He was on his way home from Candletop

Been two weeks gone and he'd thought he'd stop

At Web's and have him a drink 'fore he went home

To her

Andy Warlord said Hello

He said How What's doin'

Wo said Sit down I got some bad news and it's

Gonna hurt

He said I'm your best friend and you know that's right

But your young bride ain't home tonight

Since you been gone she's been seeing that Amos boy Seth

Now he got mad and he saw red

Andy said Boy don't you lose your head

'Cause to tell you the truth I've been with myself

That's the night that the lights went out in Georgia

That's the night that they hung an innocent man

Well don't trust your soul to no backwoods southerly

Lawyer

'Cause the judge in the town's got blood stains on

His hands

Well Andy got scared and left the bar

Walkin' on home 'cause he didn't live far

You see Andy didn't have many friends

And he just lost him one

Brother thought his wife musta left town

So he went home and finally found

The only thing Papa had left him and that was a gun

He went off to Andy's house

Slippin' through the back woods quiet as a mouse

Came upon some tracks too small for Andy to make

He looked through the screen at the back porch door

And he saw Andy lyin on the floor

In a puddle of blood and he started to shake

Georgia patrol was making their rounds

So he fired a shot just to flag them down

A big-bellied sherriff grabbed his gun and said Why'd

You do it

Judge said guilty on a make-believe trial

Slapped the sherriff on the back with a smile

And said Supper's waitin' at home and I gotta get to it

That's the night that the lights went out in Georgia

That's the night that they hung an innocent man

Well don't trust your soul to no backwoods southerly

Lawyer

'Cause the judge in the town's got blood stains on

His hands

Well they hung my brother before I could say

The tracks he saw while on his way

To Andy's house and back that night were mine

And his cheatin' wife had never left town

That's one body that'll never be found

You see little sister don't miss when she aims her gun

That's the night that the lights went out in Georgia

That's the night that they hung an innocent man

Well don't trust your soul to no backwoods southerly

Lawyer

'Cause the judge in the town's got blood stains on

His hands

That's the night that the lights went out in Georgia

That's the night that they hung an innocent man

Well don't trust your soul to no backwoods southerly

Lawyer

'Cause the judge in the town's got blood stains on

His hands
