Parmalee - Savannah lyrics

Everybody’s got that girl, you know the one that got away I really don’t know why but I was thinking ’bout her today I loved the way she’d say Georgia With that sweet little southern drawl And how she whispered “baby” As the mossy oak shadows would fall If whiskey was a time machine, I would try to drink her back to me There are highways and byways Running east, west, north, and south And you can sail into the harbor, see the planes touching down But I burned up every bridge Just like Sherman did coming down from Atlanta And I know there ain’t no way back to Savannah, no, no, oh, woah Yeah, I had some big city dreams, headed out on my own To the bright lights and the neon sky, left her there all alone This photograph is the only map as a memory disappears And the truth is you can’t get there from here ‘Cause there are highways and byways Running east, west, north, and south And you can sail into the harbor, see the planes touching down But I burned up every bridge Just like Sherman did coming down from Atlanta And I know there ain’t no way back to Savannah, no, no, oh, woah Yeah If whiskey was a time machine I would try to drink her back to me ‘Cause there are highways and byways Running east, west, north, and south And you can sail into the harbor, see the planes touching down But I burned up every bridge Just like Sherman did coming down from Atlanta And I know there ain’t no way back to Savannah No, no, no, oh, woah No, no, no, oh, woah Everybody’s got that girl, I’ve got mine in black and white I really don’t know why but I’m calling her tonight
