"South Georgia Sugar Babe" lyrics

"South Georgia Sugar Babe"

Well, now I been alone for such a long while now
But I won't be tonight, no
'Cause I'm bound for south Georgia to find my sugar babe
She gonna do me right
Now, I don't know somethin' about the way she do
That just drive me outta mind
So, I'm bound to south Georgia to find my sugar babe
She gonna do me right

Well, now I'm just outta Macon on Highway 16
So, I should be in Savannah by night
Well, then me and my baby, we'll go out on that town
Hell, it should be quite a site!
Lord, because my baby, she's half as crazy as me
And like I said it's been some time
So, I'm bound for sound Georgia to find my sugar babe
She gonna do me right

Now, I said come one baby, oh, I won't be long, no
So, get your dancing shoes ready girl
Put your best dress on, now
Well, cause I've been alone for such a long while now
But I won't be tonight, no
'Cause I'm bound for south Georgia to find my sugar babe
She gonna do me right
Oh, well I'm bound for south Georgia to find my sugar babe
She gonna do me right
