Thinking of Someone New

I stepped down
left this old town.
Still thinking of you
and the days of new.

Now I'm in Georgia
thinking of someone new
thinking of someone new.

Forgotten promises
broken fish bowls
and two lost souls.
It was no Rose
watching you go
we're through.

Now sitting in Georgia
thinking of someone new
someone besides you.

But, it's time to drop my frown
cause Santa's coming to town.
It's time to move on
change this night to dawn.
I'm going to forget about you.

Now, I'm here in Georgia
thinking of someone new
someone new.

I'm riding the gravy train
trying to ease my pain.
Smoking a cigar
in this box car.
Now, I know what I have to do

Now, I'm in Atlanta, Georgia
thinking of someone new
thinking of someone new.
