Tall trees in Georgia, they grow so high They shade me so And sadly walking Through the thicket I go The sweetest love I ever had I left aside Because I did not want to be any man's bride But now I'm older and married I would be I found my sweetheart But he would not marry me When I was younger the boys all came around But now I'm older and they've all settled down Control your mind my girl And give your heart to one For if you love old men You'll be surely left with none Tall trees in Georgia, they grow so high They shade me so And sadly walking Through the thicket I go
