Saving Savannah

Momma's heart is breaking

Daddy's drinking again

This old house aint' heard laughter

Since I don't know when

Got a call from her last Sunday

She said everything was fine

But I know my baby sister

I could tell she'd been cryin'

She never was good at lyin'

So I'm saving Savannah

The city ain't where she belongs

If I have to burn down Atlanta

I'm bringing Savannah back home

Twenty miles out of Marietta

Might as well be driving blind

No idea where to start looking

Afraid of what I'm gonna find

Cashed my paycheck on Friday

And I'll be here 'till it's gone

After that I'll think of something

Only thing I really know is I ain't goin' back alone

Nothing she could do to make me not love her

I ain't trying to be no hero

Just a brother

If I have to burn down Atlanta I'm bringin' Savannah back home
