"WAITING IN GEORGIA" lyrics

Slept on the couch of a friend
I'm back on the phone with Delta Airlines again
"Move the flight to next weekend"
I found out there's no one wondering
Where I have been

Nobody's waiting for me in Georgia
Atlanta says, "There's nothing for ya"
And I know I can't afford it
But I'll stay a little longer
Stay a little longer
Stay a little longer in California

Oh, I got family over in Texas
But I stay on the road
And I made a home on the West End
And my baby told me she can't handle distance
The road ain't made for lovers
And she won't be at home when I land

See, nobody's waiting for me in Georgia
Fulton County says, "There's nothing for ya"
And I know I can't afford it
But I'll stay a little longer
Stay a little longer
Stay a little longer in California

Oh, I can be on the first plane
If you call me, I'll be homebound
I've been chasing dreams out in Burbank
Like I ain't lonely now
Girl, I ain't lonely now
I just realized

That nobody's waiting for me in Georgia, no, no
My love has moved on to New Orleans
And it's true that I know I can't afford it

Oh, but I'm gonna stay just a little longer
I could fly home soon
But the airline said I don't have to choose
I won't fly home soon
(Oh, I'm never going home)
And a red-eye could have me landing by noon
But I won't fly home soon
Unless I fly home to you

I'll just stay a little longer in California
