Harry Chapin, Tom Key - Somethin's Brewin' in Gainesville lyrics

[Harry Chapin, Tom Key - Somethin's Brewin' in Gainesville lyrics]

Somebody said "Nothin ever happens
Down home 'round here"
Somebody said "Nothin ever mattered
That ever happened here"

Somebody said "In Gainesville, Georgia
What do you expect to see?"
Then a good ol' boy said "Gainesville
Georgia's good enough for me"

Now somebody said "It's the second coming"
Someone said "It's the first"
Somebody said "It's the best
That could happen"
Someone said "It's thе worst"

And somebody said "The rot gut gotcha
Moonshine's stеwed your brain"
Then the good ol' boy said
"The Cotton Patch Gospel started down in"

"gainesville, Georgia"
Somethin's brewin' in Gainesville
Wonder what it could be?
Somethin's doin' in Gainesville
Come on down and see
It's Gainesville where the Wise Men went
Turned a sinner's stable to a revival tent
It's a hell of a place to be heaven-sent
It's Gainesville-bound for me!

Well it all started in Gainesville
On the map it's just a dot

Well, the mystery of history
Is what Gainesville, Georgia's got

Now you might it hard to believe
In a world that's got to pot

But we got the story of the crownin' glory
Believe it or not

Somethin's brewin' in Gainesville
Wonder what it could be?
Somethin's doin' in Gainesville
Come on down and see
It's Gainesville where the Wise Men went
Turned a sinner's stable to a revival tent
It's a hell of a place to be heaven-sent
It's Gainesville-bound for me!

Somethin's brewin' in Gainesville
Wonder what it could be?
Somethin's doin' in Gainesville
Come on down and see
It's Gainesville where the Wise Men went
Turned a sinner's stable to a revival tent
It's a hell of a place to be heaven-sent
It's Gainesville-bound for me!

Somethin's brewin' in Gainesville
Wonder what it could be?
Somethin's doin' in Gainesville
Come on down and see
It's Gainesville where the Wise Men went
Turned a sinner's stable to a revival tent
It's a hell of a place to be heaven-sent
It's Gainesville-bound for me!
Come on down, that's where I'm bound
There I'll be found, gather round
Make a joyful sound
It's Gainesville-bound for me!
