Kerosene - What About Georgia

You draw it out like a highway
With every word that you say
Excuses for the answers that you lack
Your mamas still the steady ground you walk on every day
And your daddys still the monkey on your back
Did you find all you thought youd find out in the wild wild west
You took a little piece of home and you threw away the rest

You say youre livin on the edge and I think youre hangin from a ledge
Too scared to hold the hand that wants to help you up
Are you the man you thought youd be by the time that you turned 33
Are you still a bullet in your daddys gun
Dont forget boy youre your mamas only son
Shes at home and shes been praying for you
Hey what about Georgia

Saw your sister yesterday
Austins five and on his way
Looking for some shoes that he can fill
He said that hed be just like you the coolest guy he ever knew
And hed find you when he lost his training wheels
I looked in his big blue eyes and I saw you again Hes hungry for a life that he aint ready to begin

You say youre livin on the edge and I think youre hangin from a ledge
Too scared to hold the hand that wants to help you up
Are you the man you thought youd be by the time that you turned 33
Are you still a bullet in your daddys gun
Dont forget boy youre your mamas only son
Shes at home and shes been praying for you
So what about Georgia

Guess you didnt realize itd take you quite this long
To figure out that being free is right where you belong

You say youre livin on the edge and I think youre hangin from a ledge
Too scared to hold the hand that wants to help you up
HEY! Are you the man you thought youd be by the time that you turned 33
Are you still a bullet in your daddys gun
Dont forget boy youre your mamas only son
Shes at home and shes been praying for you
Hey want about Georgia
What about Georgia yeah
