LYRICS:
(Ah) Georgia
Georgia
The whole day through
(The whole day through)
Just an old, sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
(Georgia on my mind)
I said a-Georgia
Georgia
A song of you
(A song of you)
Comes as sweet and clear
As moonlight through the pines
Other arms a-reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still, in the peaceful dreams, I see
The road leads back to you
I said, Georgia, oh, Georgia
No peace I find
Just an old, sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
(Georgia on my mind, oh)
Other arms a-reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still, in peaceful dreams, I see
The road leads back to you
Oh, oh
Georgia
Georgia
No peace, no peace I find
Just an old, sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
(Georgia on my mind)
I said, just an old, sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind

Playing this historically epic song while driving through Georgia.
Ray Charles refused to perform at a theater in Augusta, Georgia, because the sitting arrangement was segregated.

I was featured electric bass player in a trio that performed Georgia on My Mind and other Ray Charles songs with Ray Charles in Charleston, West Virginia Symphony Orchestra. Ray Charles told the entire orchestra during the rehearsal that, the bass player, "me", could really play. The compliment from him was the thrill of a lifetime for me. It was cool. Another 15 minutes of fame.

Sitting here listening with my 89 year old father. It may be the last time I see him... He loves beautiful music ❤
EDIT
My Father passed away peacefully on the evening of July 28. I'm so glad we listened to music together. He enjoyed it so much.

I was born in northeast Georgia. Lived in the same town for 30 years.
Three months ago, I moved to Belgium. While it's better over here in some ways, nothing compares to the beautiful nature in Georgia. The trails, the animals, the rivers, the hills, playing in the forest, prinitive camping surrounded by nothing but trees and streams, the food. I live out in the countryside, but it's still so dense and flat compared to Georgia. I still miss it every day.

My grandfather from Georgia died at around the age of 24 in 1942. I never met him, but I would have loved to. He is not forgotten.

Well I had the privilege to meet Ray Charles on a flight from Mia to LAX. I was a flight attendant at the time. All he said as I was working 1 St class. He said you smell so good. I wasn't star stuck . Just a kind an real good person.

Hearing this in Scotland over 60 years ago was a revelation for this blues lover. Goose pimples 60 years later (b. 1945, Dundee)

僕は日本人で、オーディオ業界で働き始めるまでオーディオなんてEDMしか知らなかった人間だけど
この曲を聴いてからああ、表現力っていうか、伝えたい感情を感じ取れるソウルフルな歌ってこういうことを言うんだなって実感してる
今は離れた身だけど今でも好き

My name is Georgia. My dad's family was from Georgia. I was born in 1941 and Daddy insisted I would be named Georgia! Many years later, I was a student at Ohio State University in Ohio and a guy dated got tickets to surprise me to see Ray Charles and the Rayettes at the Auditorium. What a show it was!! One of the best nights of my life..Ray Charles is a master of song and when he sang "Georgia On My Mind" , I had tears in my eyes..so beautiful! I'll never forget it!
