| This is one, um, that I used to listen to when I was a little, little kid
|
| My parents had, um, this record and I’d listen to it over and over and um
|
| I’ve been wanting to do this song for a really long time
|
| Um, it’s called Tall Trees In Georgia
|
| Sung:
|
| Tall trees in Georgia
|
| They grow so high
|
| They shade me so
|
| And sadly walking
|
| Through the thicket I go
|
| The sweetest love
|
| I ever had I left aside
|
| Because I did not
|
| Want to be any man’s bride
|
| But now I’m older
|
| And married I would be
|
| I found my sweetheart
|
| But he would not marry me
|
| When I was younger
|
| The boys all came around
|
| But now I’m older
|
| And they’ve all settled down
|
| «Control your mind, my girl
|
| And give your heart to one
|
| For if you love all men
|
| You’ll be surley left with none»
|
| Tall trees in Georgia
|
| They grow so high
|
| They shade me so
|
| And sadly walking
|
| Through the thicket I go |
