Oh Atlanta

(album: Evangeline - 1981)

Well, there's a place down Kentucky
Said right down near Ohio
You can watch the planes at night
People line up to watch each flight

I said a-watching them planes
Well I wish I was on one
Sitting here thinking 'bout my crazy dream
If I could only see him tonight

Oh Atlanta, Oh Atlanta
Whoah whoah Atlanta
Got to get back to you

You can drop me off on Peachtree
I got to feel that Georgia sun
And the people in Atlanta
They make you awful glad you come

I said a-watching them planes
Well I wish I was on one
Sitting here thinking 'bout my crazy dream
If I could only see him tonight

Oh Atlanta, Oh Atlanta
Whoah whoah Atlanta
Got to get back to you

We'll go down, just you and me
Where the music plays all night
They've got the boogie band playing that's bound for hell
When they get to moving they never stop

They just keep on playing that down home beat
(Keep on laying down harmony)
Yeah I wish I was on one
Sitting here thinking 'bout my crazy dream
If I could only see him tonight
