How is your new home
Way up in the hills
I visited last July
But you were gone
You were gone away
How is out there on the road
Those dirty old motels
I hear you loved Georgia
So much you stayed
So much you stayed
So much you stayed
I hear your voice when I’m awake
It’s too close to understand
What was it you used to say
But it’s gone again
And it’s gone again
And it’s gone again
These trees, they gather round
These rivers stop and pray
All good men
They die today
Will die today
Will die today
I hear your voice when I’m awake
And it’s too close to understand
What was it you used to say
But it’s gone again
And it’s gone again
And it’s gone again
But it’s gone again
And it’s gone again
And it’s gone again
But it’s gone again
And it’s gone again
And it’s gone again
