Gonna Send You Back to Georgia Lyrics by James Carr

The Complete Goldwax Singles

0

You didn't have nothin' when I met you, baby
But look what you got now
Sometime I think I made a mistake
When I brought you from the South
I'm gonna send you right on back (Send you back)
That is where you belong (Uh huh)
Well I said, you done got up in the city mama
You done started treatin' me wrong, oh yeah
Your mama and your daddy told me
Not to bring you from the south
I brought you to the city when you was a child
Now the bright lights are driving you wild
I'm gonna send you right back to Georgia (Send you back)
You don't even know a thing (Uh huh)
When I first met you baby
You couldn't read or write your name, uh huh
Listen little
Uh! Let me sock it to you one time mama
Uh!
Woo!
Ah! Look at here
You run around with your bald head
Tryin' to play the high class game
You run in the streets both day and the night
When you don't have pocket change
I'm gonna send you right on back babe (Send you back)
'Fore I have to use my rod, oh yeah
I tried to understand
Now I'm sorry, we got to part, yeah
We got to part, baby
Listen up!
Uh!
Uh!
Woo!
Go on and send ya on back! (Send you back to Georgia)
Got to send you on back! (You're no good)
(Send you back to Georgia)
Don't need you no more! (You're no good!)
