Georgia Peaches, Georgia Peaches

They'll tear you all to pieces

Once you run 'em through that copper line

They're burnin' down the county, still ain't nobody found me

They're lookin' for that man that's been runnin' shine

Well, my ends they've been meetin' lately

Bought new shoes for my babies

Yeah, the fruits of my labor, they've been doin' fine

And I'd make me an honest livin'

If any boss 'round here was willin' to

take on a man that's taken another's life

After ten years in the pen

I'm doin' the best that I can

Tryin' to provide for my kids and wife

And every lawman in every town

Lord, they all been lookin' 'round

They're still tryin' to find

that man that's been runnin' shine

They still tryin' to find that man

that's been runnin' shine, yeah

Well, that offerin' plate on

Sunday's been gettin' kinda deep

Since we changed up the brand of communion wine

Everybody starts praisin' Jesus once

they taste some of them peaches

Wash away all their sins and strife

After ten years in the pen

I'm doin' the best that I can

Tryin' to provide for my kids and wife

And every lawman in every town

Lord, they all been lookin' 'round

They're still tryin' to find

that man that's been runnin' shine

They still tryin' to find that man that's been runnin' shine

As an old man now, I'm agin'

I bought my kids an education

So they could lead a better life than mine

Thanks to those methamphetamines

They ain't nobody worried about me

They forgot all about the man that was runnin' shine

And after ten years in the pen

Lord, I'm doin' the best that I can

Tryin' to provide for my kids and wife

Every lawman in every town

Lord, they all been lookin' 'round

They can't find that old man that was runnin' shine

They ain't never gonna find the man that was runnin' shine

Lord, I'm still the old man

that was runnin' shine, yes, I am

Yes, sir
