Cold was the night, hard was the ground They found her in a small grove of trees Lonesome was the place where Georgia was found She`s too young to be out On the street.
Why wasn`t God watching? Why wasn`t God listening? Why wasn`t God there for Georgia Lee?
Ida said she couldn`t keep Georgia From dropping out of school I was doing the best that I could But she kept runnin away from this world These children are so hard to raise good
Why wasn`t God watching? Why wasn`t God listening? Why wasn`t God there for Georgia Lee?
Close your eyes and count to ten I will got and hid but then Be sure to find me. I want you to find me And we`ll play all over We will play all over again
There`s a toad in the witch grass There`s a crow in the corn Wild flowers on a cross by the road And somewhere a baby is crying For her mom As the hills turn from green back To gold
Why wasn`t God watching? Why wasn`t God listening? Why wasn`t God there for Georgia Lee?
