Hell and Half of Georgia

Met my first love down in Macon, Georgia
Gave her 18 months and my senior ring
Lost her to a college boy up in Athens
She really put a hurt on me
I took a club gig down in Savannah
Playing 'Rambling Man' on River Street
I thought I found my sweet belezza

Just another tragedy

I guess we all gotta wade through some muddy waters
Just to appreciate standing in the crystal blues
Thank God I ain't gotta go any further
Been through Hell and half of Georgia looking for you
Gotta a job at a studio in downtown Atlanta
The owners youngest daughter swore I was gonna be a star
She disappeared with a big shot hip hop LA producer and my best guitar

I guess we all gotta wade through some muddy waters
To appreciate standing in the crystal blues
Thank God I aint gotta go any further
Been through Hell and half of Georgia looking for you
I was at a Friday night football game with a buddy in Valdosta
Stayed up all night long singing 'Statesboro Blues'
She walked in with a friend of a friend and said, 'y'all know Midnight Rider'
I said, 'yes we do'
And I knew that I'd found you

I guess we all gotta wade through some muddy waters
To appreciate standing in the crystal blues
I been through Hell and half of Georgia
Hell and half of Georgia
Ahhh Hell and half of Georgia looking for you
