Rainy Night In Georgia
Hoverin' by my suitcase tryin' to find a warm place to spend the night
A heavy rain a fallin' seems I hear your voice a callin' it's all right
On this rainy night in Georgia, a rainy night in Georgia
I believe it's rainin' all over the world
Neon signs a flashin' taxicabs and buses passin' through the night
The distant moanin' of a train seems to play a sad refrain unto the night
On this rainy night in Georgia, such a rainy night in Georgia
I think it's rainin' all over the world
How many times I have wondered
But it always comes out the same
No matter how I look at or think about it
It's just like some of it's pleasures some of it's pain
I find me a place in a boxcar so I take out my guitar to pass some time
Late at night when it's hard to rest, I hold your picture to my chest and then I'm all right
But it's still a rainy night in Georgia, it's a rainy night in Georgia
I believe it must be rainin' all over this world
All over the world
Rainy night in Georgia
