Lyrics
People in the land of Georgia Little they cared about God When the news got in the land that Man was burning on the log That man was countin' his money Yeah, he was grinnin' mighty broad He held a greenback dollar aloft, said "This money gonna make me a god" I'll tell you 'bout the man was burning Way down yonder in the land of Georgia Yes, a man was burning For blasphemin' the name of God People in the land of Georgia Prudent would not stay So they sent for a saw Just to try to get him away (Get him away) When that saw did come (Hah, hah) Began to sawin' that log (Hah, hah) Well, as thе sawdust fell, (Hah, hah) It commenced a-drippin' blood (Blood will fall) Thе people gathered to witness His friends got frightened and scared As flames of fire came out of his mouth Came through his nose and ears I'll tell you 'bout the man was burning Way down yonder in the land of Georgia This-a man was burning For blasphemin' the name of God I told you 'bout the man was burning Way down yonder in the land of Georgia Yes, the man was burning For blasphemin' the name of God I told you 'bout the man was burning Way down yonder in the land of Georgia The man was burning For blasphemin' the name of God I told you 'bout the man was burning Way down yonder in the land of Georgia The man was burning He threw his greed in the face of God
