What About Georgia Lyrics

(Miranda Lambert)

You draw it out like a highway
With every word you'd say
Excuses for the answers that you lack
Your mama�s still the steady ground
you walk on every day
And your daddy�s still the monkey on your back
Did you find all you thought you�d find out in the wild, wild west
You took a little piece of home and you threw away the rest

You say you�re livin� on the edge
and I think you�re hangin� from a ledge
Too scared to hold the hand
that wants to help you up
Are you the man you thought you�d be
by the time that you turned 33?
Are you still a bullet in your daddy�s gun?
Don�t forget boy you�re your mama�s only son
She�s at home and she�s been prayin' for ya
So what about Georgia?

I saw your sister yesterday
Austin�s five and on his way
Looking for some shoes that he can fill
He said that he�d be just like you
the coolest guy he ever knew
And he�d find you when
he lost his training wheels
I looked in his big blue eyes
and I saw you again
He�s hungry for a life he ain't ready to begin

You say you�re livin� on the edge
And I think you�re hangin� from a ledge
Too scared to hold the hand
That wants to help you up
Are you the man you thought you�d be
By the time that you turned 33?
Are you still a bullet in your daddy�s gun?
Don�t forget boy you�re your mama�s only son
She�s at home and she�s been prayin' for ya
So what about Georgia?

I guess you didn�t realize it�d take you quite this long
To figure out that being free is right where you belong

You say you�re livin� on the edge
And I think you�re hangin� from a ledge
Too scared to hold the hand
That wants to help you up
HEY! Are you the man you thought you�d be
by the time that you turned 33?
Are you still a bullet in your daddy�s gun?
Don�t forget boy you�re your mama�s only son
She�s at home and she�s been prayin' for ya
So what about Georgia?

What about Georgia? yeah
What about Georgia Georgia? Yeah
What about Georgia?
