Sweet Peach Georgia Wine |
I was on my way from Daulton, headed for Atlanta |
Thinking about that girl I left behind |
When a voice so soft and tender floated down to me from the window |
Would you like a taste of my sweet peach Georgia wine? |
Well she showed me to the backdoor and she told me what it was for |
Said you can come back and see me any old time |
And just as I was going that old sheriff must have gone in |
Said boy you’ve been in my sweet peach Georgia wine |
Now hows I supposed to know she was the sheriff’s daughter |
She was only sweet sixteen but she looked a lot older |
Well i guess I’ve learned my lesson son |
You know I’m doing my 10 to 21 |
Just for tasting that sweet peach Georgia wine |
Organ solo |
Now hows I supposed to know she was the sheriff’s daughter |
She was only sweet sixteen but she looked a lot older |
Well i guess I’ve learned my lesson son |
You know I’m doing my 10 to 21 |
Just for tasting that sweet peach Georgia wine |
Bridge |
If I ever get out of this jail house, I ain’t gonna slowdown |
Till I reach that Georgia boarder line |
Well maybe one quick stop down in Macon |
Cause i hate to leave these parts and not take it |
One more sip of sweet peach Georgia wine |
Now hows I supposed to know she was the sheriff’s daughter |
She was only sweet sixteen but she looked a lot older |
Well I guess I’ve learned my lesson son |
You know I’m doing my 10 to 21 |
Just for tasting that sweet peach Georgia wine |
