Why Georgia Lyrics
Artist(Band):John Mayer
Review The Song (25)Print the Lyrics
I am driving up 85 in the
kind of morning that lasts all afternoon
just stuck inside the gloom

Four more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
and leave it all behind

Cause I wonder sometimes
about the outcome
of a still verdictless life

Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why, why Georgia, why?

I rent a room and I fill the spaces with
wood in places to make it feel like home
but all I feel's alone
It might be a quarter life crisis
or just the stirring in my soul

Either way, I wonder sometimes
about the outcome
of a still verdictless life

Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Am I living it right?
Why, why Georgia, why?

So what, so I've got a smile on me
but it's hiding the quiet superstitions in my head
Don't believe me
Don't believe me
When I say I've got it down

Everybody is just a stranger but
that's the danger in going my own way
I guess it's the price I have to pay
still "Everything happens for a reason"
is no reason not to ask myself

If your're living it right
Are you living it right?
Are you living it right?
Why, tell me why
Why, why Georgia why?

Review about Why Georgia

a musial admirer | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/1/09

there's somthing about john mayer. you can't really put him into a genre because he seems to have created one all his own...he's a terrific singer and an unmatched lyricist.

as for this song, it's beautiful. i see music in color, and this is bright green, sky blue, and summer yellow, with some snow white thrown in. =]



The REAL Story | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/30/08

As for the origin of this song, I was just at John Mayer's Summer Tour 2008 concert in, where else, Georgia. Before playing this song, he explained how it was created. Once at the beginning of his career (which did start in Atlanta), he was on his way to a small gig and was driving down 85 when he realized that he had forgotten his guitar. When he arrived, an hour and a half late, he explained and apologized to the waiting audience of four...in song. "I was driving down 85 and..." When this on the spot tune was combined with a chorus he had been working on already, "Why Georgia" was created. Hope that enlightens anyone who was wondering.



middle aged fan | Reviewer: Bill @54 | 4/29/08

John Mayer posesses all three songwriting talents (musician, lyricist, singer) in such deep proportion that it doesn't seem fair. If he keeps the balance of his trinity of talents, he will surpass all that came before him.



middle age fan | Reviewer: Bill Dotson | 4/29/08

John Mayer is the perfect combination of talents: musician, lyricist, singer. It's almost not fair how one person can have all three gifts in such depth. At 54, I have finally found my favorite songwriter / singer. If he continues to keep the balance of his trinity of talents, he will surpass all others before him.



this is just so ...AMAZING | Reviewer: Ahmed | 3/10/08

john mayer is the greatest player i've seen,even though i know that there are many old great singers and guitar player but the effect his voice and music has on me is way better that any one else would leave..i just listen to him and feel so relaxed.his words and music moves all the emotions inside me.
he's just amazing .i hope he gets more successful and i cant wait to hear his new songs along the years to come!!



why georgia... | Reviewer: rock | 1/15/08

ive been going through a lot lately and this song really made me question if i am living it right. culminating my master's program..and not knowing the future...its quite scarry...and this song sets me right....its ok not to know. Sometimes i just keep driving just to be at peace with life and its beauty that many of us neglect to see.



Georgia is the State ...JM lived in ATL | Reviewer: Fred | 12/22/07


John lived in Atlanta and got his career really kicked off playing gigs in Atlanta. Eddie's Attic was one of his primary spots he played. 85'ing refers to I-85 which is the interstate he must have traveled to get to his apartment (probably in Gwinnett County). The Atlanta/Athens, GA music scene has produced a number of big acts including REM, B-52's and too many rappers to list.

I think the song reflects a time of JM questioning whether he was doing the right thing by leaving the Northeast and coming to ATL to try to make it.




Why Georgia Why | Reviewer: Lee Bueno | 12/7/07

I think georgia is a place, not a person. If you look at the lyrics it does not say the word she once so there is no way to indicate that georgia is a girl.

I think that the person who lives in georgia is not living it right so he leaves.
