Georgia on a Fast Train

On a rainy, windy morning that's the day that I was born on
 In the old sharecroppers one room country shack
 They say my mammy left me, same day that she had me
 Said she hit the road and never once looked back
 And I just thought I'd mention, my Grandma's old age pension
 Is the reason why I'm standing here today
 I got all my country learning, living and a churning
 Pickin' cotton, rasin' hell, and bailin' hay
 I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey
 I wouldn't born no yestday
 Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education
 Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
 ♪
 And now sweet Caroline, I don't guess I'll ever find
 Another woman put together like you all
 With your wiggle and your walkin', and your big city talkin'
 Your brand new shiny Plymouth rag-top car
 Yeah let's hurry up and wait, in this world of give and take
 Seems like haste makes for waste every time
 And I pray to my soul, when you hear those ages roll
 You better know I'm gonna get my share of mine
 And I've been to Georgia on a fast train honey
 I wouldn't born no yestday
 Got a good Christian raisin' and an eighth grade education
 Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
