G
Ridin' in a taxi cab in New York City
G
Driver man sayin' how he think it's a pity
G       C
How you southern boys come happy and you leave uptight
G
Don't you worry 'bout me I'm a be alright

[Pre-Chorus]
C
Listen Mr. taxi man, I come from a long line
C                                                        G
Of broomstraw philosophers and home made scuppernong wine...
G
Good Georgia wine

[Chorus]
G          D
And I been I been;
C
If I ain't careful I'll be goin' again
C         D             C                D                C
I've been rode hard and put up wet, If I ain't learned no lesson yet
D                            C                G
I don't believe... I'm gonna learn it in your taxi
G
In no damn taxi

[Verse 2]
G
Started to sell my soul in the pawn shops in the city
G
And I looked into the eyes of the pawn man and asked him
G               C
Did he know how much blood and gut was in the guitar
        G
He said listen here brother I don't care what you are

[Pre-Chorus]
C
Listen Mr. ticket man I come from a long line
C                                                        G
Of broomstraw philosophers and home squeezed scuppernong wine...
G
Sweet Georgia wine

[Chorus]
G          D
And I been I been;
C
If I ain't careful I'll be goin' again
C         D             C                D                C
I've been rode hard and put up wet, If I ain't learned no lesson yet
D                            C                G
I don't believe... I'm gonna learn it in your pawn shop
G
In your damn pawn shop

[Verse 3]
G
The Pusher man was watchin' when I sold my dreams
G
He said" now listen to me brother, it ain't bad as it seems
G               C
I know how this world can feel so hard and cold
G
I got a little medicine for your good soul"

[Pre-Chorus]
C
Listen Mr. pusher man I come from a long line
C                                                        G
Of broomstraw philosophers and home squeezed scuppernong wine...
G
That good Georgia wine

[Chorus]
G          D
And I been I been;
C
If I ain't careful I'll be goin' again
C         D             C                D                C
I've been rode hard and put up wet, If I ain't learned no lesson yet
D                            C                G
I don't believe... I'm gonna learn it in your taxi
G
In no damn taxi

[Outro]
C         D             C
I've been rode hard and hung up wet
     D                  C
If I ain't found a home here yet
D             C                             G
My papa said, don't you forget your home in Georgia
G
Back in Georgia
