Lyrics
WITHOUT A CARE!
Well, I live and I work in the state of Georgia,
where the gators live... and the white tail deer.
Though I go sometimes to other states now,
the smell and taste of peach is always near.
Chorus
You can hunt and fish... and ride the winds there,
from the coastline breeze, to the mountain air...
without a care.
Most folks I know are good to each other there,
though bad ones, we have our share.
We just live our lives and try to do what oughta' be,
'cause deep down we know that's best, ya' see.
You can hunt and fish... and ride the winds there,
from the coast line breeze, to the mountain air...
without a care.
On my knees I pray to God I never hafta' leave,
'til all the time is used up here for me.
When that final day does come then let the jackets fly,
the eagle soar, and the big dawg cry.
And I'll hunt and fish... and ride the winds there,
from the coastline breeze, to the mountain air...
without a care.
Ride that mountain air... without a care.
