Back Home In Georgia

John Ragsdale

Livin' in a five room suite air conditioned and central heat
Fourteen floors above the traffic's roar
Gazin' out a penthouse view got a built-in bar a color TV too
In all my dreams I never asked for more

But I find I was wrong in dreamin' where all my plans and all my schemin'
Just ain't brought this old boy peace of mind
And this fancy world that I'm a part of somehow don’t have the heart of
The place called home that I left far behind

And I wish I was back home in Georgia back home in Georgia
Instead of this big old city all alone
Yes I wish I was back home in Georgia back home in Georgia
Where there's a little more understandin' and the world ain’t so demandin'
And my baby waits for me to come back home

I promised her I'd be back in fancy clothes a big Cadillac
And make her queen of all that I surveyed
But every time I think I'm free well there's another mountain callin' me
And I'm stuck back here for another lonely day

Yes I wish I was back home in Georgia...
