Carolyn Dawn Johnson - Georgia lyrics

rate me

If I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia

Then I guess I'll be Alabama bound

There was a time when I'd do anything for you

But this time, baby, I won't turn around

I always wanted to get married, and I thought you were the one

But you never, ever asked me, and I was tired of hangin' on

You know a girl can only be let down so many times before she runs

And now this little bitty town's only got room for one of us, yeah

You always said I'd never leave, and if I did I wouldn't go far

So I know how I must look, with my tank 'a gas and beat up heart

Well baby, I'm gone for good, you can count on that

Yeah, I'm gonna keep headin' west 'til I'm too far gone to come back, yeah

And If I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia

Then I guess I'll be Alabama bound

There was a time when I'd do anything for you

But this time, baby, oh I won't turn around

I only got ten miles to go before I cross the state line

I can feel my hands shakin'

'Cause they usually turn the wheel around about this time

I heard that same ol' voice inside, I had to drown it out

So I found me a radio station playin' something fast

And I turned it up real loud

And If I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia

Then I guess I'll be Alabama bound

There was a time when I'd do anything for you

But this time, baby, oh I won't turn around

There was a time when I'd do anything for you

But this time, baby, oh I won't turn around

No, I won't turn around

If I'm not over you by Georgia, then I'll head to Alabama

Roll on to Mississippi, or maybe Lou'siana

I'll drive all the way to California

Oh, I won't turn around

No, I won't turn around

No, I won't turn around

No, I won't turn around (turn around, turn around)

I won't, I won't turn around, (no) I won't turn around
