Back to Atlanta Lyrics

If she knew that I was here with you
There ain′t no doubt about what she would do
So let's get dressed and I′ll be on my way
You knew that I was passing through, I never meant to stay

And I think I'd better go back to Atlanta
Before my conscience makes a fool of me
I never should have stepped across love's Mason-Dixon Line
And I think it′s time to go back to Atlanta

I′ve been on the road a long, long time
She was out of sight and out of mind
But she still wears my ring upon her hand
All that I could be to you is just a one-night stand

And I think I'd better go back to Atlanta
Before my conscience makes a fool of me
I never should have stepped across love′s Mason-Dixon Line
And I think it's time to go back to Atlanta

Yes, I think I′d better go back to Atlanta
Yes, I know I'd better go back to Atlanta
