Georgia

Music by Elton John . words by Gary Osborne
Album A Single Man 1978

When it's springtime down in Georgia,
It's wintertime up in Maine
You can go from snow to sunshine
On the board of a southbound train
You get used to taking orders
But it's sometimes kind of rough
I got everything a man could need
But it still ain't quite enough

Talking bout
Oh Georgia
Take me to your Southlands
I sometimes feel
That life is rolling on
Oh Georgia
Lead me through your heartlands
I need to see them one more time
Before they're gone

When it's nighttime down in Georgia
It's daytime in L.A.
Where they never seem to do much
But they sure got lots to say
But times are changing down in Georgia
Though not always for the best
Give me thirty-five good acres Lord
And let the progress take the rest

Talking bout
Oh Georgia
Take me to your Southlands
I sometimes feel
That life is rolling on
Oh Georgia
Lead me through your heartlands
I need to see them one more time
Before they're gone

Talking bout
Oh Georgia
Take me to your Southlands
I sometimes feel
My life is rolling on
Oh Georgia
Lead me through your heartlands
I need to see them one more time
Before I'm gone

Talking bout
Oh Georgia
Take me to your Southlands
I sometimes feel
My life has passed me by
Oh Georgia
Lead me through your heartlands
I need to see them one more time
Before I die
