Lyrics

Somebody said "Nothin ever happens, down home 'round here."
Somebody said "Nothin ever mattered, that ever happened here."

Somebody said "In Gainesville, Georgia, what do you expect to see?"
Then a good ol' boy said "Gainesville, Georgia's good enough for me."

Now somebody said "It's the second coming."
Someone said "It's the first."
Somebody said "It's the best that could happen."
Someone said "It's thе worst."

And somebody said "The rot gut gotcha, moonshine's stеwed your brain."
Then the good ol' boy said, "The Cotton Patch Gospel started down in..."

"...Gainesville, Georgia"
Somethin's brewin' in Gainesville
Wonder what it could be?
Somethin's doin' in Gainesville
Come on down and see
It's Gainesville where the Wise Men went
Turned a sinner's stable to a revival tent
It's a hell of a place to be heaven-sent
It's Gainesville-bound for me!

Well it all started in Gainesville
On the map it's just a dot

Well, the mystery of history
Is what Gainesville, Georgia's got

Now you might it hard to believe
In a world that's got to pot

But we got the story of the crownin' glory
Believe it or not

Somethin's brewin' in Gainesville
Wonder what it could be?
Somethin's doin' in Gainesville
Come on down and see
It's Gainesville where the Wise Men went
Turned a sinner's stable to a revival tent
It's a hell of a place to be heaven-sent
It's Gainesville-bound for me!

(Instrumental Break)

Come on down, that's where I'm bound, there I'll be found, gather round, make a joyful sound
It's Gainesville-bound for me!
