Through the prettiest country From Georgia to Tennessee My troubles behind me I'm alive and I'm free Who wouldn't want to be me I got no money in my pockets I got a hole in my jeans We're on the wheels of an angel This road keeps windin'

Going to Louisiana, baby, behind the sun If the river was whiskey and I was a diving duck You know I just found out My trouble's just begun I'm going to New Orleans get me a Mojo Hand I would swim to the bottom Drink myself back up I'm gonna get you

And I will go on shining Shining like brand new I'll never look behind me My troubles will be few Hope you find your paradise Tried to see your point of view Hope your dreams will all come true Feel no sorrow, feel no shame Come tomorrow, feel no pain

And I will go on shining Shining like brand new I'll never look behind me My troubles will be few Hope you find your paradise Tried to see your point of view Hope your dreams will all come true Feel no sorrow, feel no shame Come tomorrow, feel no pain
