How much is a ticket back to Georgia   Time for me to fetch a home   Headin' back down a railroad track of memory   Find that girl I left there all alone      I've been tryin' to find some rhyme or reason   And I've been cryin' for awhile   But it just seems like it's open season   But I know where I can find a smile      Chorus      After all this time I get to thinkin'   That things at home are still the same   Cause I've been gone so long I just can't take it   I wonder if they still recall my name      Chorus      Chorus      How much is a ticket back to Georgia   (Repeats several times and fades)
