On the Greyhound bus trip home
I was sitting all alone
When a long haired girl
Sat down next to me
She said she was Atlanta bound
Have some fun maybe kick around
Cause it sounded like a friendly place to be
From Chicago to Kentucky we just talked awhile
And somewhere in between there
I was captured by her smile
But while I left the bus in Nashville
Has been a mistery till today
Cause for two years I’ve been tracking down
That Atlanta Georgia stray
Atlanta Georgia stray
Oh she said all living things
Have a secret pair of wings
And I’m of the lucky ones who learned to fly
I don’t even know your name
But I can tell we’re much the same
Cause you’ve got that faraway look in your eyes
From Chicago to Kentucky we just talked
awhile
And somewhere in between there
I was captured by her smile
But while I left the bus in Nashville
Has been a mistery till today
Cause for two years I’ve been tracking down
That Atlanta Georgia stray
Atlanta Georgia stray
