Текст James Brown – Georgia–Lina

I’ve seen days when the sun didn’t shine
Raised in Georgia, born in Caroline
Carolina fields and Georgia Peach
People were hungry, had nothing to eat

I’m a Georgia-Lina (Georgia-Lina)
I was raised in Georgia, born in Carolina
I’m a Georgia-Lina (Georgia-Lina)
My heart’s in two places at the same time
Georgia, Carolina

Ooh… I found love, and I found hate
Got up early, stayed up late
Worked real hard, I paid my dues
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose

I’m a Georgia-Lina
Still love you (Georgia-Lina)
I’ve tasted the salt on both sides of the line
Georgia-Lina (Georgia-Lina)
So my heart’s in two places at the same time
Georgia-Caroline, uh-huh

I’ve had peaches, and I’ve had cream
Found a home in Aiken, and it satisfied my dream
I remember growin’ up, tryin’ to become a man
Found a place in Augusta, then I had my shoe-shine stand

I’m a Georgia-Lina (Georgia-Lina)
Raised in Georgia, born in Carolina
I’m a Georgia-Lina, people (Georgia-Lina)
So my heart’s in two places
Tryin’ to save faces…
At the same time
Georgia-Carolina

(Georgia-Lina) Carolina… (Georgia-Lina) to Georgia, Georgia
(Georgia and Carolina) I really do, I love you both. Ooh!
(Georgia-Lina, Georgia-Lina) All I need is a little place
(Georgia and Carolina) For me and my family
Oh, Georgia, Georgia!

(Georgia-Lina, Georgia-Lina) I’m on both sides of the fence
(Georgia and Carolina) I love you, I love you both. Ooh, ooh!
(Georgia-Lina, Georgia-Lina) Georgia, Carolina, Georgia, Carolina
(Georgia and Carolina) Georgia, ooh!

(Georgia-Lina, Georgia-Lina) When I was little, huh, with your bulldogs
(Georgia and Carolina)
?, Crimson, huh
(Georgia-Lina, Georgia-Lina) Augusta, to Georgia
(Georgia and Carolina) Atlanta, Savannah, is on your dream
(Georgia-Lina, Georgia-Lina) Augusta, Georgia…!
