I'm going back to Georgia, I've got to get away
I'm going back to Georgia, I just can't bare to stay
I'm going back to Georgia, I'm going to leave today

I've seen enough red Indians to last my whole life through
I've seen enough red Indians, Apache, Cheyenne, Sioux
I'm going back to Georgia to make some peace with you

Solo

'm going back to Georgia, I've got to get away
I'm going back to Georgia, I just can't bare to stay
I'm going back to Georgia, I'm going to leave today

Get out of my way now, because my train is due
I just can't stay now, my time out west is through
I'm going back to Georgia, I've got the homesick blues
