lyrics

When I was just a boy about three
My Dady left my momma and me
Never Growing old

Before he left he said son I’m sorry
But, I have to follow my destiny
Never growing old

He said, I’m going back to Georgia
Well, she’s always been on my mind
People there yes, they know no sense of time
For they never grow old

Times were tough
Times were mean
My momma and I, alone in a bad dream
Never growing old

Id work so hard through sweat and tears
Leaven life’s quirks and all it’s fears
Never Growing old

Then one day, I had to go to Georgia….

I learned how to sing
I learned how to play
Broke many hearts along the way
Never growing old

I could do no wrong
I would always win
The glory in my eyes, seemed to kill all my sins
Never growing old

You see, I’m going down to Georgia…….
