I Been to Georgia On a Fast Train

歌詞

On a rainy, windy morning that's the day that I was born on In the old sharecroppers one country shack They say my mammy left me, same day that she had me Said she hit the road and never once looked back And I just thought I'd mention, my Grandma's old age pension Is the reason why I'm standing here today I got all my country learning, milking and a churning Pickin' cotton, rasin' hell, and bailin' hay I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey I wouldn't born no yesterday Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way And now sweet Caroline , I guess I'll ever find Another woman put together like you all With your wiggle and your walkin',and your big city talkin' Your brand new shiny Plymouth rag-top car Yeah it's hurry up and wait,in this world of give and take Seems like haste makes for waste every time And I pray to my soul, when you hear those ages roll You better know I'm gonna get my share of mine I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey I wouldn't born no yesterday Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey I wouldn't born no yesterday Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
