With your wiggle and you're walking and your big city talking
And I just like to mention that my grandma's old age pension
They said my mommie left me the day before she had me
I got a good Christian raisin' and an eight grade education
Picking cotton raisin' hell and baling hay
I wouldn't born no yesterday
Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
I'll ever find another woman put together like you are
You better know I get my share of mine
I wouldn't born no yesterday
And your brand new shiny Plymouth rag top car
I declare to my soul when you hear those ages roll
I been to Georgia on a fast train honey
Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
And now sweet Carolina, I don't guess
Hey, let's hurry up and wait in this world of give and take
I got a good Christian raisin' and an eight grade education
I got a good Christian raisin' and an eight grade education
Said she hit the road and never once looked back
I been to Georgia on a fast train honey
I got all my country learning and a milking and a churning
I wouldn't born no yesterday
Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way
It seems like haste it makes me waste every time
I been to Georgia on a fast train honey
Is the reason why I'm standing here today
