Lyrics:
I bought me a ride down to Macon, Georgia
On a overloaded poultry truck
I thumbed on down to Panama City
Started pickin' out some o'them all night
and luck
So I bought me a ride down to Macon, Georgia
On a overloaded poultry truck
I thumbed on down to Panama City
Started pickin' out some o' them
She was a flower for the taking
Her beauty cut just like a knife
He was a banker from Macon
He swore he'd love her all a his life
He bought her
'bout things when we got there
We used to think the world was doin' fine
Travelin' below that Macon County Line
Funny how people can be so unkind
There
I may be bound for glory, but I'm Macon Georgia blue
A hotel room, a neon sign
The sound of a voice on the telephone line
You come so far, but
fine
Gonna eat some cold brains in Macon
Eat some Guinness on the ribs down in New Orleans
Need a little riot in my diet, I'm sick of,
Peace
Thinkin' back to Macon, where I spent a lot of time
Hangin' down on Cherry Street, cruisin' on Riverside
Grant's Place was the place to be, I'd love
She was a flower for the takin'
Her beauty cut just like a knife
And he was a banker from Macon
Swore he'd love her all his life
Bought her

Left his home down in Macon, Georgia. Left the shade of an old oak tree.
Got his dreams in his left front pocket.
Got his eye squinted
I have never loved a lady
Never touched no silken knee
Macon baby, you drove me crazy
You were so easy to me
Lay me down in Georgia pine cones
Johnny Macon has a wife and one child on the way
And Houston's runnin' out of jobs and there are bills to pay
Johnny's flying standby to Alaska
ridin' thumb
Left his home down in Macon, Georgia
Left the shade of an old oak tree, tree
Got his dreams in his left front pocket
Got his eyes
I was born in Macon Georgia they kept my dad in the Macon jail
Dad said son if you keep your hands clean
You won't hear them bloodhounds on your

on the road
Gettin it together between Macon
And Muscle shoals
I started turnin' it loud and lookin to
The crowd and bendin them guitar strings
Knew all
WELL HER LOVE WAS A HABIT AND I TRIED TO KICK IT
SO I WENT DOWNTOWN AND BOUGHT A ONE-WAY TICKET
AND I RODE THAT GREYHOUND DOWN TO MACON
THEN I

Take the governor of Georgia to judge which one I like
One woman's Atlanta yellow, the other is Macon brown
But

Left the shade of an old oak tree, tree
Got his dreams in his left front pocket

At the Grand Ole Opry every Saturday night
There was Uncle Dave Macon, his gold tooth and plug-hat
Cowboy Copas singing "Tragic

We'll have us a large, large time, you all
We played Macon, GA with Lynyrd Skynyrd, it was a rock 'n' roll hoedown

At the Grand Ole Opry every Saturday night
There was Uncle Dave Macon, his gold tooth and plug-hat
Cowboy Copas singing "Tragic
Sittin' in the kitchen, a house in Macon
Loretta's singing on the radio
Smell of coffee, eggs and bacon
Car wheels on a gravel road

I wonder what's the trouble, great big troubles at my door
Yes I'm goin' up to Macon, don't want
