Lyrics
By the time I heard
Heard much about Georgia
By the time I knew
Knew much about you
Had to grab my things and
Make my way to Georgia
By the early morning
Not much I could do
Caught the 1:15
Headed down to Georgia
Had to get away
Get away from you
For if you catch me now
On my way to Georgia
Only hell to pay
And not much I could do
With silken shirts and party hats
Old grey men just gettin' fat
Sittin' round here
Waitin' for to die
Anjalie and Sarah too
Were tortured by they things they knew
They never even stopped
To ask me why... ya why
By the time I heard
Heard much about Georgia
By the time I knew
Knew much about you
Had to grab my things and
Make my way to Georgia
By the early morning
Not much I could do
With silken shirts and party hats
Old grey men just gettin' fat
Sittin' round here
Waitin' for to die
Anjalie and Sarah too
Were tortured by they things they knew
They never even stopped
To ask me why... ya why... ya why
