Lyrics

Atlanta
I wonder whats goin down
in your part of town
right in the heart of it
the salon they call Rockit
tell me, who's cutting who?
who has married who?
who has moved on
since i've been long gone?

I bless the twist of fate
that found me lost
that day in Tennessee
I thank the Walkers
for guiding me out of there
and the Greyhound bus
that took me to Georgia
that same day

Atlanta, i wont forget
Atlanta, i wont forget ya

I had no money, I had no plan
just a guitar in hand
little more i could do
than sing my heart out for you
and Southern hospitality showered over me

Atlanta, i wont forget ya
Atlanta, i'll never forget

What I'd give for the chance just to see ya
I'd sing again at Smith's and shout y'all Margerita's
I'd bring back that all-star band
and rock it with ya

Atlanta, i wont forget
Atlanta, I'll never forget ya

I bless the twist of fate that found me lost that day in Tennessee
and each one of you that made Atlanta HOME to me
