Blood Red And Goin' Down

Lyrics

That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
 Daddy said, "Now come girl
 We're headed down the road to Augusta"
 And frankly through his clenched teeth
 He called Mama's name and then he cussed her
 He said, "Girl, you're young
 But some dude has come along and stole your mother"
 But you can't steal a willin' mind
 'Cause mama's always lookin' for a lover
 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
 With dusty tear drops on his face
 My daddy cried an' big steps he was takin'
 Halfway runnin' to keep up
 My shorter legs were so tired and shakin'
 "Where did I go wrong, girl?
 Why would she leave us both this way?"
 At times like these, a child of ten
 Never knows exactly what to say
 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
 ♪
 We searched in every bar-room
 And honky-tonk as well
 ♪
 And finally daddy found them
 And Lord, you know, the rest is hard to tell
 He sent me out to wait
 But scared, I looked back through the door
 And daddy left them both
 Soakin' up the sawdust on the floor
 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
 That Georgia sun was blood-red and goin' down
