CeeLo Green - Georgia Lyrics

Back down memory lane, I began as my mother's bright idea.
A short time later they all watched in awe, and all of a sudden I'm here
She was also my father, so I hardly got to see her.
I was afraid of the dark, but it was only because I was believer.
I was told when I was two years old; she swore that I would be special.
I took a good look around, and thought don't worry mama, the city's gonna help you.

Georgia!
You'll always be home to me.
Georgia!
I belong to you, and yes, you belong to me.
When they ask me where I'm from...
I'm proud to say that I'm your son.

I'm moving on, using mostly dirt roads, until I find my way.
Campbellton Road, can't forget Cascade, or the immemorial MLK
There's something about Atlanta that doesn't cease to amaze me.
Oh, after all, you even raised the people that raised me.
And my old man is buried there. Can't be mad now. Why bother?
And you have been my mother nature and also my godfather.

Georgia!
You'll always be home to me.
Georgia!
I belong to you, and yes, you belong to me.
When they ask me where I'm from...
I'm proud to say that I'm your son.

Georgia!
You'll always be home to me.
Georgia!
I belong to you, and yes you belong to me.
When they ask me where I'm from...
I'm proud to say that I'm your son!
