Georgia

Artists : Carolyn Dawn Johnson : Georgia

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 ya,
But this time, baby, I won't turn around, yeah.

I always wanted to get married, and I thought you were the one,
But you never ever asked me, and I was tired of holding on.
Y'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 'o gas and beat up heart.
Well, baby, I'm gone for good, you can count on that.
Yeah, I'm gonna keep heading west 'till I'm too far gone to come back.

And if I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia,
Then I'll be Alabama bound.
There was a time when I'd do anything for ya,
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 I usually turn the wheel around about this time.
I heard that same old voice inside, I had to drown it out,
So I found me a radio station playin' somethin' fast and I turned it up real loud.

And if I'm not over you by the time I get to Georgia,
Then I'll be Alabama bound.
There was a time when I'd do anything for ya,
But this time, baby, oh, I won't turn around.

There was a time when I'd do anything for ya,
But this time, baby, oh, I won't turn around, yeah.
No, I won't turn around.

If I'm not over you by Georgia,
Then I'll head on to Alabama.
Roll on to Mississippi,
Maybe Louisiana.
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.
I won't, I won't turn around.
I won't turn around.

I won't, I won't turn around.
I won't, I won't turn around.
I won't turn around.

I won't, I won't turn around.
I won't, I won't turn around.
I won't turn around.

I won't, I won't turn around.
I won't, I won't turn around.
I won't turn around.
