I'M GOING HOME TO GEORGIA words and music by Lisa Null My body is tired, my spirit is burned I'm going home to Georgia My poor heart is aching with all that I've learned I'm going home to Georgia Pour me a drink; it'll settle my thirst You always knew what I loved best Maybe it'll deaden this pain in my chest I'm going home to Georgia After all that I've travelled and all that I've seen I'm going home to Georgia It's none of your business just where I've been I'm going home to Georgia Sing me song; set my spirit at ease You know all the tunes I love best Maybe it'll lighten this weight on my chest I'm going home to Georgia I've brought you a secret as true as a rose I'm going home to Georgia The more tarnished it gets the brighter it glows I'm going home to Georgia In all of my wanderings I could never forget You were the one I loved best Lay yourself down, put your head on my breast I'm going home to Georgia "From the horses mouth..." Lisa dictated the words to me as I typed. She adds that she's still an active performer in the Washington, D.C. area. --Charlie Baum
