lyrics

SUMMER IN GEORGIA

let's take a roadtrip, it's been a while
let's see some wrong turns we've never seen
let's pack up the baby and pack up the beagles
these are golden days for traveling when Georgia is green

(chorus)
sweetheart it's Summer in Georgia
the days hot and slow as jalapeno honey
days that just swamp down the hands of time
and every long minute I'm glad that you're mine
sweetheart it's Summer in Georgia


we could drive up to Helen or maybe out to Comer
we could stop in for sweet tea at Café Saving Grace
buy a basket of peaches at a roadside concession
but I'm confessing no peach blossom's pretty as your face

(chorus)


let's roll down the windows
get the Braves on the radio
let our minds flutter off
in that butterfly sky
I know out there somewhere
there's a world full of sorrow
but today I'm still smiling
and I bet you know why

sweetheart it's Summer in Georgia...

(for Kristy)
