Come taste the southern-sweet-tea air
Unlock your locks of nut-brown hair
Just take my hand, I'll treat you well
Come sing, my soft Atlanta belle!
We'll dance all night
(It's not a crime!)
Under charmed old light,
We'll step in time
Our feet tickle the floorboards
Kicking, shuffling, and rushing
While my Georgia-doll baby
Is smiling and blushing
And the music is swift
It's soulful, it's gushing
You're a ripe strawberry
In a sweet, **** pie
Lips rouged like dark cherry
Eyes just like the sky
And when the newborn day rises
All the star time will pass
You will wake in my arms
In fresh morning-dew grass
