Well, when I wDoke up this mGorning, the skEmy was so brightG

And I'm forgGetting just where to begGin
And then I'm lDost in cGonfusion agDainG  
Yes, I'm lDost in cGonfusion agDainG

Well, the brDoom straw is a’dGyin’, vEmarious shades of brownG  
And Dover the hill I can sGee the skyline of the mEmost famous Georgia cAollege town
[Chorus]
Still those NDovember winds keep a’blAowin’
And I'm forgetting   Gjust where to begGin
Then I'm lDost in cGonfusion agaDinG

Still those NDovember winds keep on a’ blAowin’
And I'm forgGetting just where to begGin
