Dean Martin - If I Ever Get Back to Georgia lyrics
[Dean Martin - If I Ever Get Back to Georgia lyrics]
City along about the middle of now
And I'm telling you I'd be a happy
Man if I could get away somehow
Cause, I'm growing old before my time
Finally I see the light
But, if it costs a dime to get around
The world I couldn't get out of sight
But, if I ever get back to
Georgia there'll be no messing around
If I ever get back to Georgia I
Gonna nail my feet to the ground
(In the cold cold ground)
Well the buildings here in New York
City grow so doggone tall
Sometimes you can walk for a couple of days
And never see the sun at all
So I left last night I was homeward bound
Now I wanna sit and I cry
Cause, I stuck out my thumb till my thumb got
Numb and the cars went right on by
But, if I ever get back to Georgia
(In the cold cold ground)
Well I guess my time in New York
City hasn't been a total waste
Cause, I met a little girl from a social
World I really put her in her place
When she sold me half of the Brooklyn
Bridge I hung around just for spite
And I played this part till I won her heart
And I bought the other half last night
But, if I ever get back to Georgia
But, if I ever get back to Georgia
(In the cold cold ground)
