He's going back to Georgia
Because he knows time, and time has come
How long will you stay?
Boy, you don't got nine lives to waste
She believed every word he told her
About the troubles and how they start
How long will you stay?
Boy, you don't got nine lives to waste
She didn't believe
She didn't believe
She didn't believe
He made a promise to no one
That he could right a wrong
How long will you stay?
Boy, you don't got nine lives to waste
She didn't believe
She didn't believe
She didn't believe what they told her, about her lover
Nothing left bet her tears, and theirs were laughter
