|
(Chorus:) |
|
I'm troubled, |
|
I'm troubled |
|
I'm troubled in mind |
|
If trouble don't kill me |
|
Lord I'll live a long time |
|
Courting is pleasure |
|
And parting is grief |
|
But a false hearted lover |
|
Is worse than a thief |
|
For a thief will just rob you |
|
And take what you crave |
|
But a false hearted lover |
|
Will lead you to the grave (Chorus) |
|
And the grave will decay you |
|
And turn you to dust |
|
Not one girl in a hundred |
|
That a poor boy can trust |
|
They'll hug and kiss you |
|
And tell you more lies |
|
Than the cross ties on a railroad |
|
Or the stars in the sky (Chorus) |
|
I'm going to |
|
Georgia I'm going to |
|
Rome I'm going to |
|
Georgia Gonna make it my home |
|
I'm gonna build me a cabin |
|
On the mountain so high |
|
So the world bird and the turtle dove |
|
Will hear my sad cry (Chorus2x) |
