Karaoké I Been to Georgia On a Fast Train Billy Joe Shaver

On a rainy, windy mornin'

That's the day that I was born on

In that old share-croppers one room country shack

They say my mama left me the day before she had me

Said she hit the road and never once looked back

And now I just thought

I'd mention my Grandma's old age pension

Is the reason why I'm standin' here today

I got all my country learnin'

Millin' and a-churnin'

Pickin' cotton, raisin' hell and bailin' hay

I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey

I wasn't born no yesterday

I got a good Christian raisin' and eighth grade education

Ain't no need in y'all a-treatin' me this way

And now sweet Caroline

I don't guess I'll ever find another woman put together like you are

I love your wiggle in your walkin' and your big city talkin' and your brand new shiny

Plymouth ragtop car

Hey let's hurry up and wait in this world of give and take

Seem like a haystack made for waste every time

And I pray to my soul when you hear those ages roll

You better know I'm gonna get my share of mine

I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey

I wasn't born no yesterday

I got a good Christian raisin' and eighth grade education

Ain't no need in y'all a-treatin' me this way
