SAVANNAH, GEORGIA WHISPERED TO THE SEA
AND THE SHIPS THAT CAME
TO STAKE THEIR CLAIM WERE ENCHANTED
SAME AS ME
SAVANNAH, I WAS LOST AND ALL ALONE
LEFT WITHOUT A FRIEND
YET SHE TOOK ME IN, AND MADE ME FEEL AT HOME
WELL I'VE COUNTED THE YEARS I’VE WASTED
I’VE OFTEN WONDERED WHY
I LEFT HER ONCE WHEN I WAS YOUNG
BUT I NEVER SAID GOODBYE, TO MY
SAVANNAH, ONE DAY SOON I HOPE TO SEE
HER SWEET SMILE AGAIN
BUT UNTIL I CAN
SAVANNAH WAITS FOR ME
EVERY TOWN’S GOT ITS CHURCHES
AND EVERY TOWN’S GOT A JAIL
YES AND BOTH OF THEM SERVE THEIR PURPOSE
'CAUSE EVERYONE’S BOUND TO FAIL, SOMETIME
SAVANNAH, I'M JUST WAITING TO BE FREE
AND WHEN GEORGIA GRANTS A SECOND CHANCE
SAVANNAH WAITS FOR ME
COMIN’ HOME
OHH COMIN’ HOME
