I'm walking the long road to Georgia That long road that's taking me back Gonna live in the hills, far away in the hills And I'm gonna dress in black Way high in the hills in Georgia I'll live in my old tin shack Nobody I'll see and no one will see me And I'm gonna dress in black 'Cause I went down to the big city I had money, had money in my sack Had a boy so fine, I thought he was mine But he left me without a shirt on my back Way high in the hills in Georgia
I'll live in my old tin shack And I'll think of the time when that man was mine And I'm gonna dress in black 'Cause I went down to the big city I had money, had money in my sack I had a boy so fine, I thought he was mine But he left me without a shirt on my back Way high in the hills in Georgia I'll live in my old tin shack And I'll think of the time when that man was mine And I'm gonna dress in black Yeah I'm gonna dress in black Yeah I'm gonna dress in black
