Billy Joe Shaver - I Been To Georgia On A Fast Train

Kishore Kumar Hits — Billy Joe Shaver - I Been To Georgia On A Fast Train lyrics

Artist: Billy Joe Shaver

album: Live Forever: A Tribute To Billy Joe Shaver

On a rainy, windy morning, on the day that I was born
In the old sharecroppers one country shack
They say my mammy left me, the day before she had me
Said she hit the road and never once looked back
And I just like to 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 wasn't born no yesterday
I got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education
And ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
♪
Oh, my sweet Caroline, I don't guess I'll ever find
Another woman put together like you all
I love your wiggle and your walkin', and your big city talkin'
And your brand new shiny Plymouth rag-top car
Well it's hurry up and wait, in this land of give and take
It seems like haste makes for waste every time
And I declare to my soul, when I hear them ages roll
You better know I'm gonna get my share of mine
I've been to Georgia on a fast train, honey
I wasn't born no yesterday
I got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education
And ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
♪
I've been to Georgia on a fast train, honey
I wasn't born no yesterday
I got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education
And ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
And ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
