Oh Atlanta Lyrics

-- B. Payne 

They got a place down Kentucky 
Right down near Ohio 
Where you can watch the planes at night 
People line up just to watch them fly 
I wish I was on one 
I'm sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my girl back home 
If I could only see her tonight 
  
Oh Atlanta, Oh Atlanta! 
I said yeah! yeah! yeah! Atlanta, got to get back to you 
  
Well you can drop me off on Peach Street 
I got to feel that Georgia sun 
And the women there in Atlanta 
They make us both feel glad it's only hit and run 
I said watchin' them planes 
I wish I was on one 
I'm sittin' here thinking 'bout a girl back home 
  
Oh Atlanta, Oh Atlanta! 
I said yeah! yeah! yeah! Atlanta, got to get back to you 
  
You take a day o' nights it's just you and me 
Where the diesel plays all night 
They got the boogie man goin' 'round for hell 
And when they get to movin' they never stop 
You just keep on playin' that down home beat 
You just keep on layin' down high 
  
I wish I was on one 
Sittin' here thinkin' bout a girl back home 
If I could only, oh if I could... 
  
Oh Atlanta, Oh Atlanta! 
I said yeah! yeah! yeah! Atlanta, got to get back to you
