the road and i
will spend some time
it's very far
but she don't mind
her arms are long
she takes me in
she never asks me
where i've been
i long to hear the crickets cry
to see the sun in a southern sky ...
eight hundred miles to savannah
i wanna go i wanna go
eight hundred miles to savannah
i want i wanna go
the road is wise
and i am green
so many places
never seen
this city wind
gets bitter cold
i see my face
growin old
i long to ly on southern ground
where the sun's been pourin down ...
eight hundred miles to savannah
i wanna goi wanna go
eight hundred miles to savannah
i wanti wanna go
the road and i
will spend some time
it's very far
but she don't mind
her arms are long
she takes me in
she never asks me
where i've been
i'm gonna hear the crickets cry
gonna see that sun in a southern sky ...
