Smashing Georgia Peaches

Down in the humid mosqitoe pits
Across the street we have guns for sale
Don't stay too still(especially in the evening)
The blood suckers will feast!

If you live through the west nile virus
You might get killed in a drive-by
Homies don't have no education
No working skills, homie can fly high

Pop a cap, in ya, if you stare in his face
  take ya money to get high!

Farming don't pay, China has our industry
China has our stock market money
Only job in GA is an officer of the law
Better not speed on the way to Palm beach

Peach fuzz Revenue, word!

still working on it...

Reminds me of a time when I was on the Thousand Islnds of New York and there were a million mosquitos. Have you ever worked on a farm. My late father worked on a chicken farm for a while

You really hit the heart of this "peachy" state -- the characters, society, industry, all of it. Well done, Doris! Love, Carolyn
