[00:00:00] The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia - Ray Conniff

[00:00:12] He was on his way home from candletop

[00:00:15] Been two weeks gone and he thought he'd stop

[00:00:18] At Web's and have him a drink

[00:00:20] For he went home to her

[00:00:25] Andy Wo-Lo said hello

[00:00:27] He said hi what's new

[00:00:29] And Wo said sit down

[00:00:31] I got some bad news that's gonna hurt

[00:00:36] Said I'm your best friend and you know that's right

[00:00:39] But your young bride ain't home tonight

[00:00:42] Since you been gone

[00:00:43] She's been seeing that amos boy seth

[00:00:48] He got mad and he saw red

[00:00:51] Andy said boy don't you lose your head

[00:00:53] Cause to tell you the truth

[00:00:55] I've been with myself

[00:01:00] That's the night the lights went out in georgia

[00:01:06] That's the night that they hung an innocent man

[00:01:11] Don't trust your soul to no back woods southern lawyer

[00:01:17] Cause the judge in the town's got bloodstains on his hand

[00:01:23] Well Andy got scared and left the bar

[00:01:26] Walking on home cause he didn't live far see

[00:01:29] Andy didn't have many friends

[00:01:30] And he just lost him one

[00:01:35] Brother thought his wife must've left town

[00:01:37] So he went home and finally found the only thing

[00:01:41] Papa had left him and that was a gun

[00:01:46] He went off to Andy's house

[00:01:49] Slipping through the back woods quiet as a mouse

[00:01:52] Came upon some tracks too small for andy to make

[00:01:58] He looked through the screen at the back porch door

[00:02:01] And he saw Andy lying on the floor

[00:02:04] In a puddle of blood and he started to shake

[00:02:09] Now the georgia patrol was making their rounds

[00:02:12] And he fired a shot just to flag'em down

[00:02:15] And the big bellied sheriff grabbed his gun and said

[00:02:18] Why'd you do it

[00:02:21] Well the judge said guilty on a make believe trial

[00:02:24] Slapped the sheriff on the back with a smile

[00:02:27] Said supper's waiting at home and I gotta get to it

[00:02:34] That's the night the lights went out in georgia

[00:02:39] That's the night that they hung an innocent man

[00:02:44] Don't trust your soul to no back woods southern lawyer

[00:02:50] Cause the judge in the town's got bloodstains on his hands

[00:02:56] Well they hung my brother before I could say

[00:02:59] The tracks he saw while on his way

[00:03:02] To Andy's house and back that night were mine

[00:03:08] And his cheating wife had never left town

[00:03:11] And that's one body that'll never be found

[00:03:14] You see little sister don't miss when she aims her gun

[00:03:20] That's the night the lights went out in Georgia

[00:03:26] That's the night that they hung an innocent man
