[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I left my home in Georgia
In May of sixty-three
Traveled to Virginia
To fight for General Lee
But I can t fight this mornin
I must be southward bound
My Jenny s in Atlanta
And Atlanta s burnin down
Heeeeeey Heeey Yeah
Oooohhhh Ahhh Ahhh
[Verse 2]
From Gettysburg to Richmond
Ohhh I fought long and hard
Far away in Georgia
Sherman s in my own backyard
So I m leavin here this mornin
Even if they shoot me down
My Jenny s in Atlanta
And Atlanta s burnin down
[Chorus]
Atlanta s burnin down
Oh Atlanta s burnin down
Jenny s in Atlanta
And Atlanta s burnin down
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus] X2
Atlanta s burnin down
Oh, Atlanta s burnin down
Jenny s in Atlanta
And Atlanta s burnin down
[Outro]
