Georgia

[Verse 1]

Back down memory lane

I began as my mother's bright idea

A short time later

They all watched in awe and all of a sudden I'm here

She was also my father

So I hardly got to see her

I was afraid of the dark

But it was only because I was a believer

[Pre-Chorus]

I was told when I was two years old

She swore that I would be special

I took a good look around and thought, "Don't worry, Mama

This city's gonna help you"

[Chorus]

(Thank you) Georgia (Georgia)

You'll always be home to me

Georgia (Georgia)

I belong to you, and yes, you belong to me

When they ask me where I'm from, uh

I'm proud to say that I'm your son

[Verse 2]

I'm movin' on

Using mostly dirt roads until I find my way

Campbellton Road

Can't forget Cascade or remember old MLK

There's somethin' about Atlanta

That doesn't cease to amaze me

Oh, after all

You even raised the people that raised me

[Pre-Chorus]

And my old man is buried there

Can't be mad now, why bother?

And you have been my Mother Nature

Also my godfather

[Chorus]

(Thank you) Georgia (Georgia)

You'll always be home to me

Georgia (Georgia)

I belong to you, and yes, you belong to me

When they ask me where I'm from, uh

I'm proud to say that I'm your son

[Bridge]

I surrender my soul, flesh and bone

Inspired by the greatest love I know

[Chorus]

Georgia (Georgia)

You'll always be home to me

Georgia (Georgia)

I belong to you, and yes, you belong to me

When they ask me where I'm from, uh

I'm proud to say that I'm your son

[Outro]

Georgia
