Georgia Fare Thee Well
B. Sheffield - Copyright 2009 - (from the album) In Other Words...
My suitcase and my Gibson lay there beside the door.
The time has come to say goodbye, but just a word before.
Nothing to say to make me stay, I know you wouldn't try.
Time is wastin' anyway if we can't see eye to eye.
Goodbye Georgia, fare thee well, Georgia, fare the well.
They say that for a hundred years your family has ruled this town.
Their secrets and their skeletons all lie buried in this ground.
They never accepted me, I'm not sure the reason why.
If we were never meant to be, don't say we didn't try.
Goodbye Georgia, fare thee well, Georgia, fare thee well.
And so we learn to live beyond the choices that we make.
And I know that there are bonds you simply cannot break.
But, my dear, it is with love I bid this sad adieu.
As surely as the stars above, I pray the best for you.
Goodbye Georgia, fare thee well, Georgia, fare thee well.
Repeat.
