Hoagy Carmichael
Georgia Rose (Live)
[Verse 1]
Georgia Rose
Georgia Rose
You’re the most precious rose Dixie grows
Now some folks don’t think it's right
‘Cause your skin is dark as the night
You know you’ve got a heart and it's pure pure white
[Bridge]
The good Lord up above
I know we all look the same
So don’t hang your head down, not in shame
Georgia Rose
Georgia Rose
Well, don’t be blue ‘cause you’re Black
Georgia Rose
[Verse 2]
Georgia Rose
Georgia, Georgia Rose
You’re the most precious rose Dixie grows
Now some folks don’t think it's right
‘Cause your skin is black as the night
You know you’ve got a heart and it's pure pure white
[Bridge]
To, to the good Lord up above
I know we all look the same
So don’t hang your head down, not in shame
Georgia Rose
Georgia, Georgia Rose
Well, don’t be blue ‘cause you’re Black
[Outro]
Oh, Georgia, Georgia
I know a song of you
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia Rose, Georgia, Georgia Rose
Well, don't be blue 'cause you're Black
Georgia Rose
Don't be blue 'cause you're Black
Girl, you're fine, and that's a fact
'Cause you're Black, don't you be blue
My, my Georgia, Georgia, oh, Georgia Rose
Ah-ha-ha, oh, Georgia Rose
Thank you
