lyrics

Dear Georgia, my Georgia
The girl I call home
The years I was drunk
Were the good ones I’m told
And out in the distance
The 4am bells
My old trusty horse
Are these old rusty rails

My shoes are worn thin
My money ain’t good
I ain’t got nothing
A Georgia man should

‘Cept I been busted
And broken on down
By the sweet Georgia girls
In my sweet Georgia town

I’m a dog in the dirt
You’re the salt of the Earth
We’re hounds in the whispering light
I’m a book full of words
You’re the lesson I learned
Sincerely, I love you, goodbye

I never been no place
Passed the state line
Never had stones
To say my goodbyes

So hold this old note
That I wrote to your breast
And let the sweet
Whiskey I drank to the rest

I’m a dog in the dirt
You’re the salt of the Earth
We’re hounds in the whispering light
I’m a book full of words
You’re the lesson I learned
Sincerely, I love you, goodbye

Shaken awake
And I’ve been deceived
The wind’s got no warm
And the trees got no leaves

But it don’t make no difference
If the sun doesn’t show
These tracks run one way
And that way ain’t home

I’m a dog in the dirt
You’re the salt of the Earth
We’re hounds in the whispering light
I’m a book full of words
You’re the lesson I learned
Sincerely, I love you, goodbye
