"You Hear Georgia" lyrics

"You Hear Georgia"

You hear "Georgia" when I open my mouth
Don't make no difference what I'm talking about
I let you in and then you throw me out
You can't see nothing past this shadow of a doubt

We used to go toe to toe
My heart ain't in it no more
Scratching for the higher ground
That's what makes the world go round

Oh, they say that to see is to believe
But you know you can't believe everything you read
A hammer and a block of stone, singing that tired old song
Maybe you could find a new harmony
If you hear "Georgia"

You see "Georgia" when you look down on me
From the top of that mountain where you'll always be
I wanna reach up sometime and shake your tree
But you'll fall soon enough, I guess I'll let it happen naturally

I got nothing more to say
Your mind's made up anyway
You can be in the right
If that's what helps you sleep at night

They say that to see is to believe
But you know you can't believe everything you read
A hammer and a block of stone, singing that tired old song
Maybe you could find a new harmony

Yeah, they say that to see is to believe
But you know you can't believe everything you read
A hammer and a block of stone, singing that tired old song
Maybe you could find a new harmony
If you hear "Georgia"
If you hear "Georgia"
