Georgia On A Fast Train - Billy Joe Shaver

On a rainy

Windy morning that's the day

That I was born on

In the old sharecroppers

One room 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

Living and a churning

Pickin' cotton rasin' hell

And bailin' hay

I've been to Georgia

On a fast train honey

I wudn't born no yestday

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 don't 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 wudn't born no yestday

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 wudn't born no yestday

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
