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

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

Well 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

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

I say, hey hey hey yeah huh huh haw
Hey hey hey whoo ooh
Mm hmm, oh yeah huh huh huh
