I got a non-stop one way flight tonight
I'm going fast as I can
And there ain't nobody in sight
If I get pulled over now
I got a good excuse
See, if I get outta here
I'll get over you
Well, you always said life ain't always fair
But if that's what you think, baby
Why do you still care
Cause by the time I get
To where I lay my head
You'll be sleeping in somebody else's bed
So I'm counting on Georgia
To set me free
Just a day's back from Tennessee
And I know you're gonna tell me how sorry you think I'll be
'Cause all I really wanted was to believe
That you were the only man for me
But hopes and dreams worried I would leave
So I'm counting on Georgia
Oh, Georgia
Georgia to set me free
Just as soon as I left today and you behind
All the memories started coming back to my mind
Whoa, you shoulda tried harder
If you wanted to stop me
But I ain't asking for you and your sympathy
So I'm counting on Georgia
To set me free
Just a day's back from Tennessee
And I know you're gonna tell me how sorry you think I'll be
'Cause all I really wanted was to believe
That you were the only man for me
But hopes and dreams worried I would leave
So I'm counting on Georgia
Oh, I'm counting on Georgia
Georgia to set me free
If this is what you wanted
You got your way
'Cause baby, this is what I needed
I've got nothing left to say
But Georgia, won't you set me free?
Just a day's back from Tennessee
And I know you're gonna tell me how sorry you think I'll be
'Cause all I really wanted was to believe
That you were the only man for me
But hopes and dreams worried I would leave
So I'm counting on Georgia
I'm counting on Georgia
I'm counting on Georgia
Oh, Georgia
Georgia to set me free
