long way from georgia

oh sittin' in a truck stop

with my cowboy boots and my guitar

i've been livin' on a tip box

it was meant for cigars

long way from georgia

long way from georgia

oh i'm out on the highway yeah yeah

i have no regrets

'cause i'm livin' my way

long coffee and cigarettes

long way from georgia

long way from georgia

oh wind this highway is my poem

oh through the night i ride on

i just keep on rollin' on

'cause i'm a long way from home

long way from georgia

long way from georgia

oh sittin' in a truck stop

and a waitress tells me

ah boy you got a good smile

might take you a long way

say boy you better make it count

'cause you're a long way from georgia
