Red Georgia Clay
By John Anderson
D
One rainy night in Dalton they were talkin' in the bar
D A
About two bodies they'd been searching for
D Bm
Behind old Samson's sawmill, the blood hounds found their grave
D A D
They were layin' in that red Georgia clay
D
So I just sat and listened and drank my whiskey down
D A
I knew I'd never make it out of town
D Bm
When a big hand grabbed my shoulder, I started shakin' in my boots
D A D
And I knew the time had come to tell the truth
D
I said I followed them one evening when the sun was sinkin' low
D A
I knew that loggin' shack was where they'd go
D Bm
But when I watched 'em love together, it was more than I could take
D A D
So I left them layin' in that red Georgia clay
Chorus:
D G D G D
I may be hungry, cold and lonely in this ole prison cell
A
And when I die I guess I'll go to hell
D Bm
But at least I know she won't be runnin' 'round on me today
D A D
Cause they're layin' in the Red Georgia clay
Arm and arm together, they both wanted it that way
So I left them layin' in that Red Georgia clay
