I Been to Georgia On a Fast Train Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen

On a rainy Wednesday mornin', that's the day that I was born in
That old sharecroppin' one-room country shack
Well, they say my mama left me the day before she had me
She hit the road and never once looked back

And now I just wanna mention that my grandma's old-age pension
Is the reason that I'm standin' here today
I got all my country learnin' just a-milkin' and a-churnin'
Pickin' cotton, raisin' hell and a-balin' hay

Yeah, I've been to Georgia on a fast train, honey
I wasn't born no yesterday
I got a good Christian raisin' and a eighth-grade education
Ain't no need in y'all treatin' me that way

Sweet Carolina, I don't believe I'll ever find a
'Nother woman put together like you are
I love the wiggle in your walkin' and your big-city talkin'
And your brand new shiny Plymouth ragtop car

Now it's-a hurry up and wait in this world of give and take
Seem like-a haste makes a waste every time
I declare to my soul, when you hear those ages roll
You better know I'm gonna get my share of mine

Well, I've been to Georgia on a fast train, honey
I wasn't born no yesterday
I got a good Christian raisin' and a eighth-grade education
Ain't no need in y'all treatin' me that way
Yeah
