Georgia

You draw it out like a highway
With every word that you say
Excuses for the answers that you lack
Your mama's still the steady ground you walk on every day
And your daddy's still the monkey on your backDid you find all you thought you'd
Find out in the wild, wild west
You took a little piece of home
And you threw away the restYou say you're livin' on the edge and
I think you're hangin' from a ledge
Too scared to hold the hand
That wants to help you upAre you the man you thought you'd be
By the time that you turned 33
Are you still a bullet in your daddy's gun
Don't forget boy you're your mama's only son
She's at home and she's been praying for you
So what about GeorgiaSaw your sister yesterday
Austin's five and on his way
Looking for some shoes that he can fill
He said that he'd be just like you
The coolest guy he ever knew
And he'd find you when he lost his training wheelsI looked in his big blue eyes
And I saw you again
He's hungry for a life that
He ain't ready to beginYou say you're livin' on the edge and
I think you're hangin' from a ledge
Too scared to hold the hand
That wants to help you upYou the man you thought you'd be
By the time that you turned 33
Are you still a bullet in your daddy's gun
Don't forget boy you're your mama's only son
She's at home and she's been praying for you
So what about GeorgiaGuess you didn't realize it'd
Take you quite this long
To figure out that being free
Is right where you belongYou say you're livin' on the edge and
I think you're hangin' from a ledge
Too scared to hold the hand
That wants to help you upHey, you the man you thought you'd be
By the time that you turned 33

Don't forget boy you're your mama's only son
She's at home and she's been praying for you
