"Going To Georgia" lyrics - THE MOUNTAIN GOATS

The most remarkable thing about coming home to you
Is the feeling of being in motion again;
It's the most extraordinary thing in the world

I have two big hands
And a heart pumping blood
And a 1967 Colt.45 with a busted safety catch

[Chorus:]
The world shines
As I cross the Macon county line
Going to Georgia

The most remarkable thing about you standing in the doorway
Is that it's you and that you are standing in the doorway
And you smile as you ease the gun from my hand
I am frozen with joy right where I stand

The world throws its light underneath your hair
Forty miles from Atlanta
This is nowhere
Going to Georgia

[Chorus:]
The world shines
As I cross the Macon county line
Going to Georgia
