Georgia, Georgia, the whole day through
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind
(Georgia on my mind)
Georgia, Georgia, a song of you comes as sweet and clear
As moonlight through the pines
Other arms reach out to me, other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see the road leads back to you
Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind
