Miller's Cave

(album: Sings For Lovers And Losers - 1967)

Way down in
The state of Georgia
Down amongst the swamps
And the everglades
There's a big ole hole
In Tiger mountain
God help the man
Who gets lost in Miller's Cave

You know I had me a girl
In Waycross Georgia
But she had unfaithful ways
She made me feel
Just like I wasn't wanted
Like the bats and the bears in Miller's cave

Well, I caught her out
Sunday morning
With some guy
Everybody calls him baby
He's the meanest man
In Waycross Georgia
I'd rather fight a mountain lion in Miller's Cave

So I said
Boy y'all gonna pay for this
Both you and baby
'Cause I'm a gonna see you in your grave
And they laughed at me
So then I shot 'em
Then I dragged their cheating skin and bones
On down to Miller's Cave

I couldn't stand
The way she did me
Well I guess I showed
I was brave
The most wanted man
In the state of Georgia
They'll never find me
'Cause I'm lost in Miller's Cave
Yes I'm lost
I can't find my way
