Georgia to Texas

Austin Jenkins, Eric Frederic, Joshua Block, Todd Michael Bridges

504 black girl carried me
In her womb to the land of the peach
Her birthin' pains brought me low
But she held me high on Peach Tree Road

Got mother's eyes and my father's nose
Also got brother's hand-me-down clothes
We had no green but the love was strong
It was all we needed to get us along
Get us along

Left ATL for the Texas way
We drove 20 East in my daddy's '88
I learned in school I didn't measure up
I fell short of what true blackness was
Mama talked a righteous way
I said "Down that path Lord's been astray"

Paid for love on a crescent moon
In that Oklahoma motel room
Carrie taught me chords to strum
They got me through and I felt numb

504 black girl
504 black girl carried me
504 black girl, black girl
504 black girl carried me
504 black girl carried me
504 black girl carried me
