Barefoot in the bed of your truck
On a blanket lookin' up
Half a moon peekin' down at us
From underneath the clouds
Teenage kids sneakin' out again
Heard the thunder rollin' in
We were fallin' the moment when
It all came pourin' down

The Georgia Rain on the Jasper County clay
Couldn't wash away what I felt for you that day
Just you and me down an old dirt road
Nothin' in our way
Except for the Georgia Rain

The cottonfields remember when
A flash of lightnin' drove us in
We were soaked down to the skin
By the time we climbed inside
And I don't remember what was poundin' more
The heart in my chest
Or the hood of that Ford
As the sky fell in and the storm clouds poured
Worlds way outside

The Georgia Rain on the Jasper County clay
Couldn't wash away all the love we made
Just you and me down that old dirt road
No one saw a thing
Except for the Georgia Rain

The screen door flappin' in the wind
Same old house I grew up in
Can't believe I'm back again
After all these years away
You fixed your daddy's house up nice
Saw it yesterday while I drove by
Looks like you've made yourself a real good life
What else can I say?

The Georgia Rain on the Jasper County clay
Couldn't wash away the way I loved you to this day
The old dirt road's paved over now
Nothin' here's the same
Except for

The Georgia Rain
Couldn't wash away the way I loved you to this day
Just you and me down the red dirt road
Nothin' in our way
Except for the Georgia Rain
