Lyrics

('Georgia on a fast train', alright)
On a rainy, windy morning, that's the day when I was born
In that old sharecroppers one-room country shack
They say my mammy left me, same day that she had me
Said she hit the road and never once looked back
And now I just thought I'd mention, my grandma's old age pension
Is the reason why I'm standing here today
I got all my country learning, living and a-churning
Pickin' cotton, rasin' hell, and bailin' hay
I've been to Georgia on a fast train, honey
I wouldn't born, oh, yesterday
Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth-grade education
Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
And now sweet Caroline, I don't guess I'll ever find
Another woman put together like you all
I love your wiggle and your walkin', and your big city talkin'
Your brand new shiny Plymouth rag-top car
And let's hurry up and wait, in this world of give and take
Seem like haste it makes for waste, every time
And I pray to my soul, when you hear those ages roll
You better know I'm gonna get my share of mine
I've been to Georgia on a fast train, honey
I wouldn't born, oh, yesterday
Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth-grade education
Ain't no need in y'all a-treatin' me this way, alright
(God loves you when you dance)
(Be careful, don't hurt nobody)
I've been to Georgia on a fast train, honey
I wouldn't born, oh, yesterday
Got a good Christian raisin', eighth-grade education
Ain't no need in y'all treatin' me this way
Ain't no need in y'all a-treatin' me this way
(Thanks)
