I was down in Atlanta, Georgia So far away from home I woke up missin' my baby And feelin' so alone And only time can change my mind From feelin' sad and blue Longing, longing for you Got to find myself a song to sing Waiting for the days to bring me Closer to my home sweet home Closer to the love I know I feel the sunshine on my face The smile I love, the warm embrace
Longing, longing for you I've got a girl, she's so fine She's in Georgia on my mind I'm thinkin' 'bout her all the time And feelin' so alone I'm thinkin' 'bout when I come home to her And to know I won't be Longing, longing anymore. No I won't be Longing, longing anymore. No I won't be Longing, longing anymore
