Way down in Columbus, Georgia Lord I wish I was back in Tennessee Way down in Columbus Stockade Prison All of my friends have turned on me
Go and leave me if you want to Never let it cross your mind In your heart you love another Won't you leave me little darling, never mind
Many nights with you I've rambled Darlin' countless hours with you I've spent Thought I had your sweet love and little heart forever But now I find you're only lent
Go and leave me if you want to Never let it cross your mind In your heart you love another Won't you leave me little darling, never mind
Last night while I was sleeping I dreamt I held you in my arms When I awoke I was so mistaken I was still inside these the bars
Go and leave me if you want to Never let it cross your mind In your heart you love another Won't you leave me little darling, never mind
Way down in Columbus, Georgia Oh Lord I wish I was back in Tennessee Way down in Columbus Stockade Prison All of my friends have turned on me
Go and leave me if you want to Never let it cross your mind In your heart you love another Won't you leave me little darling, never mind
