Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tall trees in Georgia
They grow so high
They shade me so
And sadly walking
Through the thicket I go
[Verse 2]
The sweetest love
I ever had I left aside
Because I did not
Want to be any mans bride
[Verse 3]
But now I'm older
And married I would be
I found my sweetheart
But he would not marry me
[Verse 4]
When I was younger
The boys all came around
But now I'm older
And they've all settled down
[Verse 5]
Control your mind, my girl
And give your heart to one
For if you love all men
You'll be surely left with none
[Verse 6]
Tall trees in Georgia
They grow so high
They shade me so
And sadly walking
Through the thicket I go
