Lyrics

[Intro] Mmm, mmm, mmm Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey Whoa-oh-oh (Oh), oh-oh (Oh, oh) Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey (Oh) [Verse 1] Sittin' here thinkin' Damn, I'm getting a little older Tryna find some peace of mind Take the weight of the world off my shoulder Mmm, mot me driving down the highway (Got me driving down the highway) Tryna make it through each and every day (Every day) Fade to black, end all poverty Take a truck and move my people down south with me [Chorus] Trade my ball and chain in for a ticket (Oh, oh) On a one-way trip into Georgia (Yeah) Big smiles, apple pies My people, and blue skies Tomatoes grow where I can pick 'em On an open highway through Georgia (Open highway through Georgia) Green grass, tear stains (Well, well, well, well) Shadow dancing in the pouring rain [Verse 2] Sittin' here looking in the mirror Damn, it's getting a little clearer If I could paint a perfect picture Would you dare take it with ya? (Take it with ya, take it with ya, ow) Picture us whistling while fishing Picture us dancing while romancing (While romancing) To a tune that belongs to me and you My ball and chain, we will all be free, yeah [Chorus] Trade my ball and chain in for a ticket (See, oh) On a one-way trip into Georgia (See all of my people) Big smiles (Big smiles), apple pies (Apple pies) My people, and blue skies (Hey, hey) Tomatoes grow where I can pick 'em On an open highway through Georgia (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) Green grass, tear stains Shadow dancing in the pouring rain [Bridge] We can be dancing, steady romancing Whistling while we're steady fishing (Steady fishing) Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah), oh Yeah, yeah, yeah [Chorus] Trade my ball and chain in for a ticket (See, oh) On a one-way trip into Georgia (See all of my people) Big smiles (Big smiles), apple pies (Apple pies) My people, and blue skies (Well, well) Tomatoes grow where I can pick 'em On an open highway through Georgia (Open highway to Georgia) Green grass, tear stains (Well, well, well, well) Shadow dancing in the pouring rain [Outro] Oh-oh, yeah
