Georgia peaches

our georgia peaches 

kept us nourished in the heat

our gospel songs kept us 

happy 

the train kept moving 

fast along the tracks

and we found each other 

in a foreign land 

we never expected to fall in love 

to have our lives changed forever 

but those sweet georgia peaches 

opened wide our hearts 

and we became as one 

throughout those long 9 months

we were there for each other 

each one always ready to do 

and be for the other 

and when time came to say goodbye 

no one else has ever cried as much 

as we two did 

but forever in our souls and hearts 

our love lives on 

when we hear that soulful singing

or those sweet georgia peaches eat
