Lyrics
TAKE ME TO THE COAST OF GEORGIA
music & words by:
Phil Morrison
Intro Verse (rubato)
Majestic oak trees standing tall - adorned with Spanish moss
At last you've found that paradise- that someone said was lost...
Chorus Take Me to the Coast of Georgia
Where sand beaches stretch for miles
Take Me to the Coast of Georgia
Home of the Golden Isles
Verse 1
A casual drive on country roads will take me to the sea
And once I'm there, there's no place else where I would rather be
A causeway reaches out to touch the islands from the shore
St. Simons & Sea Island...point the way to heaven's door
Chorus Take Me to the Coast of Georgia
Where sand beaches stretch for miles
Take Me to the Coast of Georgia
Home of the Golden Isles
Verse 2
A small cafe in Brunswick, GA, where fishing boats come in
That mystical sensation from the Marshes of Glynn
Jekyll Island is so serene - Little St. Simons too......
Traveling on that street of dreams - your dreams have now come true
Chorus Take Me to the Coast of Georgia
Where sand beaches stretch for miles
Take Me to the Coast of Georgia
Home of the Golden Isles
