Bare feet hangin' off a tire swing
Cotton dress barely hangin' on to me
Settin' sun coolin' down the August heat
Sweet magnolia in the air
Lazy old river just floatin' by
That boy was givin' me the eye
River bank wasn't quite dry
Standin' at the water's edge sayin', "Girl come over here"
I felt it movin' underneath my toes
Soakin' in all over my clothes
We were laughin' when he pulled me close
And my heart went "thump thump thump"
He had a little bit on his lips
When he gave me that first kiss
But it was perfect just the way it was
Back then, me and him, big grins, covered in
That Georgia mud
I think it took a good two days
To wash all that dirt away
Another two years to forget his face
Love faded like it will, but every now and then, I still
Feel it movin' underneath my toes
Soakin' in all over my clothes
We were laughin' when he pulled me close
And my heart went "thump thump thump"
He had a little bit on his lips
When he gave me that first kiss
But it was perfect just the way it was
Back then, me and him, big grins, covered in
That Georgia mud
Oh, yeah
I felt it movin' underneath my toes
Soakin' in all over my clothes
Well, it was hard to take it slow
When my heart went "thump thump thump"
He had a little bit on his lips
I gotta say I didn't mind a bit
It was perfect just the way it was
Back then, me and him, big grins
Back then, me and him, big grins, covered in
That Georgia mud
That Georgia mud
Oh, yeah
