The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia (格鲁吉亚灯火熄灭之夜) - Hit Crew Masters[00:00:00]
He was on his way home from Candletop[00:00:14]
Been two weeks gone and he thought he'd stop[00:00:17]
At Web's and have him a drink for he went home to her[00:00:20]
Andy Wo-Lo said hello[00:00:25]
He said "Hi what's new"[00:00:28]
And Wo said "Sit down I got some bad news[00:00:31]
That's gonna hurt"[00:00:34]
Said I'm your best friend and you know that's right[00:00:37]
But your young bride ain't home tonight[00:00:40]
Since you been gone she's been seeing that Amos boy Seth[00:00:42]
Now he got mad and he saw red[00:00:48]
Andy said boy don't you lose your head[00:00:51]
Cause to tell you the truth I've been with her myself[00:00:54]
That's the night that the lights went out in Georgia[00:01:00]
That's the night that they hung an innocent man[00:01:05]
Well Don't trust your soul to no back woods Southern lawyer[00:01:10]
Cause the judge in the town's[00:01:16]
Got bloodstains on his hands[00:01:17]
Andy got scared and left the bar[00:01:22]
Walking on home cause he didn't live far you see[00:01:25]
Andy didn't have many friends and he just lost him one[00:01:27]
Brother thought his wife must've left town[00:01:33]
So he went home and finally found the only thing[00:01:36]
Daddy had left him and that was a gun[00:01:39]
He went off to Andy's house[00:01:44]
Slipping through the back woods quiet as a mouse[00:01:47]
Came upon some tracks too small for Andy to make[00:01:50]
He looked through the screen at the back porch door[00:01:55]
And he saw Andy lying on the floor[00:01:58]
In a puddle of blood and he started to shake[00:02:01]
The Georgia patrol was making their rounds[00:02:06]
So he fired a shot just to flag em down[00:02:09]
A big bellied sheriff grabbed his gun and said[00:02:12]
"Why'd you do it "[00:02:14]
The judge said guilty on a make-believe trial[00:02:18]
Slapped the sherriff on the back with a smile[00:02:20]
Said supper's waiting at home and I gotta get to it[00:02:23]
That's the night the lights went out in Georgia[00:02:29]
That's the night that they hung an innocent man[00:02:35]
Don't trust your soul to no back woods Southern lawyer[00:02:40]
Cause the judge in the town's[00:02:46]
Got bloodstains on his hands[00:02:47]
Well they hung my brother before I could say[00:02:51]
The tracks he saw while on his way[00:02:54]
To Andy's house and back that night were mine[00:02:57]
And his cheatin wife had never left town[00:03:03]
That's one body that'll never be found[00:03:05]
You see little sister don't miss when she aims her gun[00:03:08]
That's the night the lights went out in Georgia[00:03:14]
That's the night that they hung an innocent man[00:03:19]
Don't trust your soul to no back woods Southern lawyer[00:03:25]
Cause the judge in the town's[00:03:30]
Got bloodstains on his hand[00:03:32]
That's the night the lights went out in Georgia[00:03:37]

Cause the judge in the town's[00:03:53]
