Reckon how she must have got her kicks that’a way

She turned me every way but loose blew my mind and cooked my goose

And stomped my Georgia soul into that West Virginia clay

Now I’m walking back to Georgia crying Lord I feel like I’m a dying

Everything I try to do right seems to turn out wrong

With my hat in my hand a humming some old worn out song
