Going Back To Georgia Lyrics - Singles - Griffith Nanci

Oh the city snow makes your brown eyes shine 

We've gotta look real hard to find a reason to cry 

New York, New York is a friend of the traveling kind 

And I'm coming around from years of hard times 

He's chased me down through the towns and the miles 

Once stilled by love he was bound to roll on by 

Chorus 

And if you feel my love won't leave you 

And if your sorrow has been your share 

If you are traveling back to Georgia 

(oo ooo back to Georgia) 

Won't you take me with you there 

Well I'm long gone darlin', lonesome blue 

I been thinking of leavin', I been thinkin' o you 

But that big city singin' man, I like the way that it shines 

I was half a mile from Canada waitin' on a train 

Wonderin' and wishin' I could disappear again 

I been killed by love still it takes me to the end of the line 

Chorus: 

And if you feel my love won't leave you 

And if your sorrow has been your share 

If you are traveling back to Georgia 

(oo ooo back to Georgia) 

Won't you take me with you there 

Well, I been troubled by a love untrue 

He's a fool who'll drown in his fountain of youth 

I can see that now as I'm walkin' and talkin' with you 

Well, I been blinded by the sun, washed in the rain 

Scattered in America, I'm scatterin' again 

But if you're goin' south darlin, I guess I'm travelin' with you 

Chorus 

Chorus 

Take me with you... 

Oh....won't you take me home
