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 FAINTLY
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
TEARDROPS
ON HIS FACE
MY DADDY CRIED
AND BIG STEPS
HE WAS TAKIN'
HALFWAY RUNNIN'
TO KEEP UP
MY SHORTER LEGS
WERE SO TIRED
AND SHAKIN'
WHERE DID I
GO WRONG GIRL
AND 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
