Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, way down yonder on the Chattahoochee
It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie
We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt
We got a little crazy but we never got caught
[Verse 2]
Down by the river on a Friday night
Pyramid of cans and the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women
Never had a plan, just a-livin' for the minute
[Verse 3]
Yeah, way down yonder on the Chattahoochee
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But I learned how to swim and I learned who I was
A lot about livin' and a little 'bout love
[Verse 4]
Aw-haw
[Verse 5]
Well, we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy
I was willin' but she wasn't ready
So I settled for a burger and a grape sno-cone
Dropped her off early but I didn't go home
[Verse 6]
Down by the river on a Friday night
A pyramid of cans and the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women
Never had a plan, just a-livin' for the minute
[Verse 7]
Yeah, way down yonder on the Chattahochee
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But I learned how to swim and I learned who I was
A lot about livin' and a little 'bout love
[Verse 8]
Well, way down yonder on the Chattahochee
It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie
We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt
We got a little crazy but we never got caught
[Verse 9]
Well, we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy
I was willin' but she wasn't ready
So I settled for a burger and a grape sno-cone
I dropped her off early but I didn't go home
[Verse 10]
Down by the river on a Friday night
A pyramid of cans and the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women
Never had a plan, just a livin' for the minute
[Verse 11]
Yeah, way down yonder on the Chattahochee
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But I learned how to swim and I learned who I was
A lot about livin' and a little 'bout love
A lot about livin' and a little 'bout love
[Verse 12]
Yeah-hee
That's right
