Oh, Atlanta

(Bill Payne)



Well, there's a place down Kentucky

Said right down near Ohio

You can watch the planes at night

People line up to watch each flight.



I said a-watchin' them planes

Well I wish I was on one

Sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my crazy dream

If I could only see him tonight.



Oh Atlanta, Oh Atlanta

Whoah whoah Atlanta

Got to get back to you.



You can drop me off on Peachtree

I got to feel that Georgia sun

And the people in Atlanta

They make you awful glad you come.



I said a-watchin' them planes

Well I wish I was on one

Sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my crazy dream

If I could only see him tonight.



Oh, Atlanta, Oh Atlanta

Whoah whoah Atlanta

Got to get back to you.



We'll go down, just you and me

Where the music plays all night

They've got the boogie band playin' that's bound for hell

When they get to movin' they never stop.



They just keep on playin' that down home beat

(Keep on layin' down harmony)

Yeah I wish I was on one

Sittin' here thinkin' 'bout my crazy dream

If I could only see him tonight...
