Oh the city snow makes your brown eyes shine We've gotta look real hard to find a reason to cry New York, New York is a friend of the traveling kind And I'm coming around from years of hard times He's chased me down through the towns and the miles Once stilled by love he was bound to roll on by And if you feel my love won't leave you And if your sorrow has been your share If you are traveling back to Georgia (oo ooo back to Georgia) Won't you take me with you there Well I'm long gone darlin', lonesome blue I been thinking of leavin', I been thinkin' o you But that big city singin' man, I like the way that it shines I was half a mile from Canada waitin' on a train Wonderin' and wishin' I could disappear again I been killed by love still it takes me to the end of the line And if you feel my love won't leave you And if your sorrow has been your share If you are traveling back to Georgia (oo ooo back to Georgia) Won't you take me with you there Well, I been troubled by a love untrue He's a fool who'll drown in his fountain of youth I can see that now as I'm walkin' and talkin' with you Well, I been blinded by the sun, washed in the rain Scattered in America, I'm scatterin' again But if you're goin' south darlin, I guess I'm travelin' with you And if you feel my love won't leave you And if your sorrow has been your share If you are traveling back to Georgia (oo ooo back to Georgia) Won't you take me with you there And if you feel my love won't leave you And if your sorrow has been your share If you are traveling back to Georgia (oo ooo back to Georgia) Won't you take me with you there Take me with you... Oh....won't you take me home
