Packing up my duffel

Gonna leave this town

Packing up my duffel

Gonna leave this town

And I'm gonna hustle to

Catch that train southbound

Got the Georgia blues for the plow and hoe

Got the Georgia blues for the plow and hoe

Walked out my shoes

Over this ice and snow

Tune up the fiddle dust off the bow

Tune up the fiddle dust off the bow

Put on the griddle

And open up the cabin door

I thought

I was going to the north land to stay

I thought

I was going to the north land to stay

South is on my mind

My blues won't go away

Potatoes in the ashes possum on the stove

Potatoes in the ashes possum on the stove

You can have the hash

But leave it on the clove

Chicken on the roof

Babe watermelons on the vine

Chicken on the roof

Babe watermelons on the vine

I'll be glad to get back

To that Georgia gal of mine
