Jim Croce - Walkin' Back To Georgia Lyrics
I'm walkin' back to Georgia
And I hope she will take me back
Nothin' in my pockets
And all I own is upon my back
On that hot dusty Macon road
And if she's still around
I'm gonna settle down
With that hard lovin' Georgia girl
I'm walkin' back to Georgia
She's the only one who knows
How it feels when you lose a dream
And how it feels when you dream alone
Oh I'll be home in just a while
And if I had to I'd be crawlin'
Just to share another mornin' smile
But you're the girl who said you loved me
On that hot dusty long ago
And if you're still around
I'm gonna settle down
With you my hard lovin' Georgia girl...because
I'm walkin' back to Georgia
And I hope she will take me back
Nothin' in my pockets
And all I own is upon my back

Jim Croce Walkin' Back To Georgia Comments
I'm from Kentucky but Georgia is the my second home.
Mmm, mmm
Walkin' back to Georgia
And I hope she will take me back.
Nothin' in my pockets,
And all I own is on my back.
But she's the girl who said she loved me
On that hot dusty Macon road,
And if she's still around, I'm gonna settle down
With that hard lovin' Georgia girl,
Mmm
I'm walkin' back to Georgia;
She's the only one who knows
How it feels when you lose a dream
And how it feels when you dream alone.
She's the girl who said she loved me
On that hot dusty Macon road
And if she's still around, I'm gonna settle down
With that hard lovin' Georgia girl.
Mmm
Georgia can you hear me callin';
I'll be home in just a while.
And if I had to I'd be crawlin'
Just to share another mornin' smile.
You're the girl who said you loved me
On that hot dusty long ago,
And if you're still around, I'm gonna settle down
With you, my hard lovin' Georgia girl.
Mmm
Because I'm walkin' back to Georgia,
And I hope she will take me back.
Nothin' in my pockets
And all I own is on my back.
She's the girl who said she loved me
On that hot, dusty Macon road
And if she's still around, I'm gonna settle down
With that hard lovin' Georgia girl.
Mmm, mmm
The best!
Listening for the 1st time! Oh God!
this song just disappeared on spotify so i came here :,c
I’m here because he’s off Spotify
Real life, I've had some strikes against my videos lately.
Jim can say more by humming than most can say with an entire album.
I will probably live in Georgia one day because of this song...
Best singer song-writer ever! Period.
Good song, just discovered it
Jim Croce, the best!!!!
So sweet and an athem to the '70's culture.
This guy defines America.
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I'm now 24 years old and I so loved this song when my uncle first introduced his music to me back when i was a kid. I wish i was born around the time when Jim was a hit, instead of hearing todays new crappy songs dominating the music industry, all nonsense lyrics and nudity..
One of a legend jim croce love all your songs miss you rip jim your the man
There should have Ben a lot more, so sad
Croce is a musical God
Another classic from the best story teller in the world God bless you Mr Croce
What a fucking singer
The man was incapable of writing a bad song, a travesty ,and commentary on what it has become, that he along with Nick Drake and Gram Parsons are not in the Hall of fame. Man was brilliant
Stop saying RIP, we will all die, trust me, you will be gone in no time. It is about being truthful while alive, like that Hard loving Georgia Girl. - Cruising down on a 171 bus to NJ, 8/9/2019
Jim Croce, the best!!!!!
Forever Jim!
Anybody know where I can find Jim's version of "I'm Just A Country Boy", a song written by Fred Hellerman and popularized by Don Williams in 1977?
No your not The seminoles Itsate Creeks (descendants of Itza Mayas) the Mayas are modern day red Guatemalans are the real people of Georgia your a dirty white stinking Invading european colonist that smells like shit
A lot of Jim's song's sure make you think obout the choices you made in your life ,never be another like him
One of my all time favorites.
Damn. They nailed this one. Jim makes me see that hot dusty Macon road every time I listen (And Maury's lead was ON).
Never be another like jim
Linda música....
Jim croce linda canção....
goddam look at this song
Jim,you were the real deal.RIP
Many moons ago
Touch my soul
Walking HELL IM RIDING. BE MY BROOMSTIK,OR BUST.RAINING FIREY TOADS WHOLE WAY

Amen, Nick.
TIME GOES BY SO QUICKLY

This man only spreads positive vibes. Love it
Jim is buried at Haym Solomon Memorial Park in Malvern, Pennsylvania. Great song! For all of us who have lost loved ones. Life goes that fast and we will see them again that soon!
Hello type in "Ron Howard Palace" listen to Opie sing "Lady"! Also type "Ron Howard cover" listen to "The Dance"!
Croce was not a poet! that is for dylan, and the hippie style of songwriting! "Croce" gave it to ya strait! with a no bullshit style,, about good times and many bad times also cool character songs of people he met in life..
Nice (she's waited )
This has haunted me for over 40 years- love it. RIP Jim- you are well loved!
Never forget the morning I turned on the radio and heard about Jim's death. So many great songs in such a short life. Wonder what might have been, how many amazing songs were still to come.
<3 thank you for this therapy
How it feels when you dream alone..
Jim has the most authentic voice in all of music
Lover's Cross is great too.
Should Billion Views He's A True Talent
His Family Hoped He Bombed What a Family
This one song is one of the best songs EVER.What a loss!
fantastic artist
i love this song 45 yrs my favorate jim croce
this song directs me to come and see georgia by train, been listening to this song since ages ago, had a chance now, and maybe meet the hard loving georgia girl!!
I've been playing his music for 40 yrs, and still don't have it all. Noticed he played with finger pics trying to master that now. What a man what a talent. Got misty reading the comments. It;s even hard playing his music. The crowed gets misty too. P.S. I love you Jim Croce.
love him !!! my love i erver love you
Kevin on dads cell, Lightfoot and the rest above are all among the best (except Bieber ) and greatest of poets and songwriters, but none compares with Jim Croce as far as songs about real people they knew, and everyone new a bad bad Leroy Brown, or someone they'd "have to say I love you , in a song" to, he brought back laughter, love, hope , honesty honer and simple living to us at a time when many felt we had not just lost our first war, but all the above as well. His simple lyrics grounded us and made us realize how strong our foundation and support structure, as a country united , were. And at a time when everyone wondered " WHAT NEXT ?"
HE REMINDEF US WHat happens when you take advantage of those weaker, something the younger generation's now have no concept of.
Música lindaaaaa
the man i have loved since grade school..moved away years ago..he asked me to listen to this song and it has touched my heart so deep..love this song.
Grew up in the 70's as a teenager and fell in love with his music, so sad that the great singer/songwriters are taken from there families and there fans way to soon. RIP Jim you are miss and still loved.
Ellenberg88 brought me here.
awesome
Beautiful ....
got to know jim croce through stranger things, but I have been hooked. LOVE this song. wanna see America some day
same here now I cant get enough
My life has been filled with the greatest music of all time. But the thing I have always loved about Jim Croce, is his honesty in lyrics and his amazing voice. His music is timeless and his wonderful music will live forever in my mind and my heart. His songs have brought me joy, and at times has brought me tears. The loss of Jim was a trajedy. and I will be forever singing his songs. In my own honest opinion he was one of the all time greatest singers and song writers of all time. God I love his timeless pieces. Like " Time ina Bottle " a song for every generation. Jim's music is a priceless treasure we can hold onto til death..
JIM CROCE FOREVER November 9, 2017 Castillejos, Zambales
The Book His Wife Wrote Is Great. In It Don McLean Used To Come Over And Jim Helped Don In His Early Years. Jim Croce Was And Is A Blessing That Will Never Be Equaled.
Jim Croce is one of the great songwriters

I regret I never got to see this amazing singer songwriter perform and I also regret that his life was cut short depriving him of the success and career he would have had.
Esse é da antiga , adoro
He certainly was brilliant, but so many people don't know his music. When I was young I spent DAYS listening to him. His songs seem to always hit home. Although I never turned back on a decision to walk away. But that was long ago ...
This song is just outstanding in every way! The girl it reminds of was probably who I should have spent my life with. Our lives (like a lot of other peoples) changed when I left our small town in Arizona for the service. She tops my list of things regrettably lost to time, and after 40 yrs. I could still grieve if I let myself do so. But that would only harm me and maybe her as well. We will be together after this world is through with us, I hope.
Jim died so young. His genius was growing with each new song. This song is but one of his masterpieces. Thank you, Jim. You are one of the greatest singer/songwriters/performers.
great song
Eric Schneck, your killing me man !!! I absolutely love Jim Croce....... hummmm hummmm hummmm
doesn't get better then this
8 track tape player and Croce in '76 ??? It was yesterday folks . Pretty blonde girl stole my heart broke into a thousand pieces ..lol ..seems to be a recurring theme . I sure miss Jim more than those girls .
one of my French friends just introduced me to this, and I'm shocked I'd never heard it before back home.
Great stuff!
Genio .. !
You can just listen to his music and feel everything he is singing about. It's so relatable. I truly believe he put his heart and soul into songs such as this. He has been the only thing I've listened to for the past month. I love him. How someone can't love him is beyond me. Such a tragic end. It's heartbreaking 💔💔
Great singer.
Jim was and still is one of God's very special gifts to the world!
Happy birthday Jim
proud to be from Macon
wow, this guy is really good!
this may upset some people, but this man hands down was the best poet, singer, song writer, of the past century.. dylan doesnt even compare in my opinion..
Jim is the best of all you've suggested imho. James Taylor, Harry Chapin, etc are all great but Croce was the best songwriter and also had the greatest voice and him and Maury on the guitar, legendary.
@Stephen Shuford absolutely right about that
@Stephen Shuford check out the story of Sixto Rodriguez. Amazing
not a put down to dylan
I'd say croce's music is just easy listening, Dylan came befor croce and had a much wider impact. It's about having perspective of the actual time it all happened in.
Que sorte encontrar essa musica!
Simple, Hart felt, straight ahead no Bullshit style! that was JIM CROCE!
don barlow Hart... so like a deer?
Time proven, for sure
immenso jim
Almost every single one of his songs could've been a classic. Could've been a Bob Dylan level musical legend.
Kinda was. Left a great collection thank goodness.
Jim is a "Bob Dylan" music legend, and more.
IT IS NOT ALMOST.IT IANT COULD HAVE BEEN. HE IS AT THAT LEVEL, OR PROBABLY JUST BEYOND WHAT WE ALL HAVE BEEN PLACING AS A MEASSURE OF HIS GREATNESS. UNBELIEVABLE TALENT.
RJ Foster had his career been longer he would’ve passed Dylan for sure
Almost every single one of his songs could've been a classic. Could've been a Bob Dylan level musical legend.
I love this fantastic song and ain't the guitars just great
fuckn beautiful and evokes what it's supposed to the love you we're once lucky enough to wrap your arms around.
Ótima música!
have to listen to this song over and over again, absolutely one of the best singer songwriters of the past century
A true wordsmith.
"I'm going settle down,,,,with my hard lov'in Georgia girl,,,," O yeah,, I can never grow tired of JC,,
yes man him and bob sager two of the best
Agreed 100% with you
yes-fo'sure-americana in the highest regard
