I'm walkin' back to Georgia   And I hope, she will take me back   Nothin' in my pockets   And all I own is upon my back      But she's the girl who said she loved me   On that hot dusty Macon road   And if she's still around, I'm gonna settle down   With that hard lovin' Georgia girl      I'm walkin' back to Georgia   She's the only one who knows   How it feels when you lose a dream   And how it feels when you dream alone      But she's the girl who said she loved me   On that hot dusty Macon road   And if she's still around, I'm gonna settle down   With that hard lovin' Georgia girl      Georgia can you hear me callin'   Oh, I'll be home in just a while   And if I had to I'd be crawlin'   Just to share another mornin' smile      You're the girl who said you loved me   On that hot dusty long ago   And if you're still around, I'm gonna settle down   With you my hard lovin' Georgia girl, because      Because I'm walkin' back to Georgia   And I hope she will take me back   Nothin' in my pockets   And all I own is upon my back      But she's the girl who said she loved me   On that hot dusty Macon road   And if she's still around, I'm gonna settle down   With that hard lovin' Georgia girl
