Going to Georgia

The most remarkable thing about coming home to you

Is the feeling of being in motion again

It's the most extraordinary thing in the world

I have two big hands

And a heart pumping blood

And a 1967 Colt .45

With a busted safety catch

The world shines

As I cross the Macon county line

Going to Georgia

The most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway is that it's you

And that you are standing in the doorway

And you smile as you ease the gun from my hand

I am frozen with joy right where I stand

The world throws its light underneath your hair

40 miles from Atlanta, this is nowhere

Going to Georgia

The world shines

As I cross the Macon county line

Going to Georgia
