Tom Paxton - Columbus, Georgia lyrics

Way down in Columbus, Georgia I wanna go back to Tennessee Way down in Columbus Stockade Folks all turned their backs on me Well, you can go and leave me if you want to Never let it cross your mind In your heart, you always love another You can leave me, little darling, I don't mind Last night as I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms When I awoke I was mistaken I was peeking through the bars Well, you can go and leave me if you want to Never let it cross your mind In your heart, you always love another You can leave me, little darling, I don't mind Way down in Columbus, Georgia It was there I nearly lost my mind Thinking about my pretty blue-eyed baby Pretty little girl I left behind You can go and leave me if you want to Never let it cross your mind In your heart, you always love another You can leave me, little darling, I don't mind Well, you can go and leave me if you want to Never let it cross your mind In your heart, you always love another You can leave me, little darling, I don't mind
