When it's springtime down in Georgia, it's wintertime up in Maine
You can go from snow to sunshine if you board a southbound train
You get used to taking orders, but it's sometimes kind of rough
I got everything that a man could need, but it still ain't quite enough
Talkin' about a whole Georgia, take me to your southlands
Sometimes, yeah, my life is rollin' on
Oh, Georgia, take me to your southlands
Oh, Georgia, take me through your heartlands
I need to see them one more time before I'm gone
When it's nighttime down in Georgia, it's wintertime up in Maine

Georgia, it's daytime in L.A.
Well, they never seem to do much, but they sure got lots to say
The times are changin' down in Georgia, though not always for the best
Give me 35 good acres, Lord, and let our progress take a round
Talkin' about a whole
Georgia, take me to your southlands
Sometimes, yeah, my life is rollin' on
Oh, Georgia, take me to your southlands
I need to see them one more time before they're gone
Talkin' about a whole Georgia, take me to your southlands
Oh, Georgia, take me to your southlands
Talkin' about a whole Georgia, take me to your southlands
Sometimes, yeah, my life is rollin' on
Oh, Georgia, take me to your southlands





through your heartlands
and meet us seated
one more time
before they're gone
Oh, Georgia
Take me to your southlands
I sometimes fear
the life that's passed me by
Oh, Georgia
Lead me through your heartlands
and meet us seated
one more time
before I die
I need to see them
one more time
before I die
