there's a church by Georgia Mountain
with a steeple painted green
when the rain comes down on Sundays
it's the saddest thing you've seen

I was born by Georgia Mountain
and I walked out in that rain
I was meant to walk in the spring sunshine
but I was raised in Georgia Plains

eighteen, I'm on the highway
that begins in Georgia Plains
when my poppa asked me
I said you won't see me again

so, I left him in the stillness
of the mountain and the rain
yes I left him in the silence there
on the road from Georgia Plains

I reached for the mountains
yes and I reached for the sea
I spent my whole life reaching
but they never reached back for me

then there come this letter
said your father's about to go
we don't expect to see you
just sing your rock 'n' roll

I can feel the mountain coming
I see the steeple through the rain
I was a fool to say I could ever get away
from Georgia Plains

back by Georgia Mountain
there's a pistol at my head
I ain't afraid of dying
fifteen years I been dead

yes I'm back by Georgia Mountain
and it's here I will remain
my whole life's been out on the highway
but the pavement ends here
in Georgia Plains
