Georgia Lee 歌詞
Cold was the night, hard was the ground
They found her in a small grove of trees
Lonesome was the place where Georgia was found
Shes too young to be out
On the street.
Why wasnt God watching?
Why wasnt God listening?
Why wasnt God there for
Georgia Lee?
Ida said she couldnt keep Georgia
From dropping out of school
I was doing the best that I could
But she kept runnin away from this world
These children are so hard to raise good
Why wasnt God watching?
Why wasnt God listening?
Why wasnt God there for
Georgia Lee?
Close your eyes and count to ten
I will got and hid but then
Be sure to find me. I want you to find me
And well play all over
We will play all over again
Theres a toad in the witch grass
Theres a crow in the corn
Wild flowers on a cross by the road
And somewhere a baby is crying
For her mom
As the hills turn from green back
To gold
Why wasnt God watching?
Why wasnt God listening?
Why wasnt God there for
Georgia Lee?
