Georgia Stockade - The Kingston Trio

Way down in Columbus, Georgia, that’s where I don’t want to be.

Hey, way down in Columbus stockade.

Take me back to Tennessee.

Chorus:

Well, you can take me back to old Kentucky, any place that you decide.

Just turn me loose from this old stockade.

I’ll tell you, buddy, I won’t mind.

The other night as I lay sleepin' I dreamt I held you in my arms.

When I awoke I was mistaken.

These prison walls were all around.

(Chorus)

Two years ago, it seems a long time, that’s when I was free and on my own.

But here I am behind that stockade.

I wish to God they’d take me home.

(Chorus)

I’ll tell you, buddy, I won’t mind.
