South Georgia Belle

Listen to poem:
Won't you dance with me in your front yard tonight By the light of that South Georgia moon With the stars in your eyes, true love in your heart Right after this fine afternoon Your hand on my shoulder, mine on your hip You draw me right into your spell Till your hair's on my cheek, my arm round your back Dance with me South Georgia belle South Georgia belle, please take my hand Step with me onto a cloud So close to heaven, your hand in mine Two hearts together so proud Ever so gentle, ever so fine How do I know you so well I’ll take you slowly, around by the hand Dance with me South Georgia belle The owls will gaze, the possums will stare The bullfrogs and crickets will sing When I hold you tight, and you melt in my arms As we set on the porch on your swing When you whisper to me, all your sweet love I whisper mine to you as well Our hearts become one, and our souls intertwine Forever my South Georgia belle
