Kinky Friedman - Georgia on a Fast Train - Live lyrics

Artist: Kinky Friedman

album: Live Down Under


On a rainy Wednesday morning, that's the day that I was born
In that old sharecropper 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, milking and a churning
Pickin' cotton, rasin' hell, and bailin' hay
I've been to Georgia on a fast train, honey
I wouldn't born no yesterday
Got a good Christian raisin' and eighth-grade education
Ain't no need in y'all a-treatin' me this way
And now sweet Caroline, I guess I'll ever find
Another woman put together like you all
I love your wiggle and your walkin', and your big city talkin'
Your brand new shiny Plymouth rag-top car
Yeah, that's hurry up and wait, in this world of give and take
Seems like haste it makes for waste every time
Now I have to pray to my soul, when you hear those ages roll
You'd better know I'm gonna get my share of mine
Ya know, I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey
I wouldn't born no yesterday
Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth-grade education
Ain't no need in y'all a-treatin' me this way (y'all do it)
(Thank you)
(Thank you very much)
(This next is about a real good friend of mine and he knows exactly who he is)
