Georgia On My Mind

Georgia, Georgia
The whole day through (the whole day through)
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind (Georgia on my mind)

Georgia on My Mind sung by Ray Charles
Songwriters: Hoagy Carmichael / Stuart Gorell

GEORGIA ON MY MIND

Peachy blue skies, perpetually deep
Idyllic sunrays resonant with power
Summer is waning; the sun never sleeps
Pecan pie in the sky - stickiness of flowers

Georgia on my mind. No where else to go
Names and cells, neighbors don’t exchange
The pace is apropos, pandemic is slow
Delta is variant, chameleon of strange

Victor Buhagiar Date: 9/11/2021 2:04:00 AM I regret I've never been to USA, let alone Georgia. Must be a beautiful place. Hugs.
