Lyrics
They got a place down Kentucky
Right down near Ohio
Where you can watch the planes at night
People line up to watch each flight
I said, "Watchin' them planes
I wish I was on one
I'm sittin' here thinkin' 'bout going back home
If I could only see her tonight"
Oh, Atlanta
Oh, Atlanta
I said, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, Atlanta
I got to get back to you"
Well, you can drop me off on Peachtree
I got to feel that Georgia sun
And the women there in Atlanta
They make you awfully glad, and so we are here
I said, "Watchin' them planes
I wish I was on one
I'm sittin' here thinking 'bout going back home"
Oh, Atlanta
Oh, Atlanta
I said, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, Atlanta
I got to get back to you"
We'll make a day and how just you and me
Where the music plays all night
They got the boogie band blowin' that's bound for hell
And when they get to movin' they'll never stop
You just keep on playin' that down home beat
You just keep on layin' it down hot
I wish I was on one
I'm sittin' here thinkin' bout going back home
If I could only, only if I could
Oh, Atlanta
Oh, Atlanta
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, Atlanta
I got to get back to you
