Miller's Cave

(Jack Clement)



Way down in the state of Georgia

Through the swamps and the everglades

There's a big ol' hole in Tiger Mountain

God help the man who gets lost in Miller's Cave.



I had me a girl in waycross Georgia

But she had unfaithful way

She made me feel I was unwanted

Like the birds and the bears in Miller's Cave.



I couldn't stand the way she did me

Couldn't take her lowdown ways

Before I'll stay with the cheatin' woman

I'll go and live with the bears in Miller's Cave.



Caught her out one Sunday morning

With some guy they call Big Dave

The meanest man in waycross Georgia

I'd rather fight a mountain lion in Miller's Cave.



I said you'll pay both you and Davy

I'm a gonna see you in your grave

They laughed at me and then I shot 'em

I took their cheatin' schemin' bones to Miller's Cave.



That woman made me feel unwanted

But I guess I showed her I was brave

The most wanted man in the state of Georgia

But they'll never gonna find me 'cause I'm lost in Miller's Cave...
