‘Why Georgia’ is the second track and third single release from John Mayer’s debut album Room For Squares.
John wrote the song when he was living in Atlanta, Georgia. In the song, he states that he is willing to leave everything behind in order to become successful.
[Verse 1]
I am driving up '85 in the
Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
Just stuck inside the gloom
4 more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
And leave it all behind
[Pre-Chorus]
Because I wonder sometimes
About the outcome
Of a still verdictless life
[Chorus]
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why Georgia, why?
[Verse 2]
I rent a room and I fill the spaces with
Wood in places to make it feel like home
But all I feel's alone
It might be a quarter life crisis
Or just the stirring in my soul
[Pre-Chorus]
Either way--I wonder sometimes
About the outcome
Of a still verdictless life
[Chorus]
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why Georgia, why?
[Bridge]
So what, so I've got a smile on
But it's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head
Don't believe me
Don't believe me
When I say I've got it down
[Verse 3]
Everybody is just a stranger but
That's the danger in going my own way
I guess it's the price I have to pay
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Still "everything happens for a reason"
Is no reason not to ask myself
[Chorus]
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why? Tell me why?
Why? Why Georgia, why?
