Cedartown, Georgia
Lyricist:C Cobble
I got a gal in Cedartown, Georgia I used to have to walk nearly three miles to court her She never had much, just a sharecropper's daughter But I married her and took her down to New Orleans She got a little house in the South French Quarter
Got a job tookin' bales load them on steamboat I give a seven days pay, next day I'm broke When she ain't a sleepin' all day she's a primpin' Every evenin' when the sun goes down She starts a swarmin' on Orleans town
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Walkin' into work this mornin' at daybreak I caught her with the tall long dandy from Canebrake She walked right by me and she looked right through me I made up my mind what I'm a gonna do Eased in the pawnshop and bought a 22
I watched as the room clerk gave them a room key A standin' right outside I could read Room 23 Tonight I'll put her on a train for Georgia Gonna be a lotta kin folks squallin' and a grieving 'Cause that Cedartown gal ain't breathing
