Cedartown, Georgia Lyrics[Verse]
I got a gal in Cedartown Georgia
I used to have to walk nearly three miles to court her
She never had much, just a sharecropper's daughter
But I married her and took her down to New Orleans
Bought a little house in the South French Quarter
Got a job hooking bales, loading them on a steamboat
I give her seven days pay next day I'm broke
When she ain't a sleeping all day she's a primping
Every evening when the sun goes down
She starts a swarming on Orleans town
Walking into work this morning at daybreak
I caught her with the tall long dandy from canebreak
She walked right by me and she looked right through me
I made up my mind what I'm a gonna do
Eased in the pawnshop and bought a 22
Watched as the roomclerk gave them a room key
Standing outside I could read Room 23
Tonight I'll put her on a train for Georgia
Gonna be a lotta kin folks squalling and a grieving
'Cause that Cedartown gal ain't breathing...
