Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Out on the lonesome highway
Suitcase and a old guitar
Just outside Oklahoma City
Place called Johnny's Roadside Bar
[Verse 2]
Having fun, son of a gun
I ain't fit to be tied
I'm on my way back to Georgia
Won't you give me a ride?
[Verse 3]
Sometimes it ain't easy
When you don't have much to spare
Traveling light, Lord, counting on my fifth
But the little bit here and there
[Verse 4]
She's got the prettiest big brown eyes
When she's satisfied
I'm on my way back to Georgia, boys
Won't you give me a ride?
[Verse 5]
I'm a long time gone
On my way back home, Lord
Long time gone from here
[Verse 6]
I'm a long time gone
On my way back home, Lord
Long time gone from here
[Verse 7]
I'm a long time gone
On my way back home, Lord
Long time gone from here
