hank snow - if i ever get back to georgia lyrics
well, the wind blows cold in new york city
along about the middle of now
and i’m telling you i’d be a happy man
if i could get away somehow.
’cause i’m growing old before my time
finally i see the light
but if it costs a dime to get around the world
i couldn’t get out of sight.
but if i ever get back to georgia
there’ll be no messin’ around
if i ever get back to georgia
i’m gonna nail my feet to the ground.
— instrumental —
well, the buildings here in new york city
grow so doggone tall
sometimes you can walk for a couple of days
and never see the sun at all.
so i left last night, i was homeward bound
now i wanna sit and i cry
’cause i stuck out my thumb till my thumb got numb
and the cars went right on by.
but if i ever get back to georgia
there’ll be no messin’ around
if i ever get back to georgia
i’m gonna nail my feet to the ground.
— instrumental —
well, i guess my time in new york city
hasn’t been a total waste
’cause i met a little girl from a social world
and really put her in her place.
when she sold me half of the brooklyn bridge
i hung around just for spite
and i played this part till i won her heart
and i bought the other half last night.
but if i ever get back to georgia
there’ll be no messin’ around
if i ever get back to georgia
i’m gonna nail my feet to the ground…
