I know a girl'll mess with your mind (?)
She'll come to you in the summer some time
She'll talk about things you don't understand
You better stick to the matters at hand
Before the whole damn thing unwinds
And she is beautiful, she is small
She don't wanna play basketball
But there's no telling what she might do
Before her doin' days are through
But right now she can't even crawl
Georgia Rae, okay, Georgia Rae
Georgia Rae, baby what'd I say, Georgia Rae
C'mon Georgia Rae
Your mother and I, we did this act
In some hotel 'bout nine months back
Now it is love that brings you here
A love that will not disappear
And Georgia honey, you can count on that
Georgia Rae, okay, Georgia Rae
Georgia Rae, baby what'd I say, Georgia Rae
We were tired, should've been sleepin'
But like a fire, something went creepin', creepin', creeeeeepin'
Now your brother and sister don't understand
How your tiny feet and your tiny hands
Could carry the weight of a thousand earths
Into our little universe
Georgia, we all think it's grand
Georgia Rae, okay, Georgia Rae
Georgia Rae, baby what'd I say, Georgia Rae
Georgia Rae, okay, Georgia Rae
Georgia Rae, baby what'd I say, Georgia Rae
C'mon Georgia Rae
Aiyee-ee-eee
Lucky for you, child, you look like your mama Ohhh, hey...
