Il testo della Georgia stockade

Nick reynolds/bob shane/john stewart

Way down in columbus, georgia, that's where i don't want to be.
Hey, way down in columbus stockade. take me back to tennessee.

Chorus:
Well, you can take me back to old kentucky, any place that you decide.
Just turn me loose from this old stockade. i'll tell you, buddy, i won't mind.

The other night as i lay sleepin' i dreamt i held you in my arms.
When i awoke i was mistaken. these prison walls were all around.

(chorus)

Two years ago, it seems a long time, that's when i was free and on my own.
But here i am behind that stockade. i wish to god they'd take me home.

(chorus)

I'll tell you, buddy, i won't mind.
