Georgia Clay Lyrics


Ain't it funny how some things take you back
And the here and now just fades to black?
When I pull that blue tarp off of that time machine
Man, it hits me
Seventeen years old, runnin' on dumb luck
Spent the whole damn summer livin' in that truck
Them old tires still covered in all that mud
Like it sticks with me in my blood
When life was nothing more than living for the night
Just trying to steal a kiss on the tailgate of that ride
Good old days don't wash away
Just like that Georgia Clay
Only one of my friends with a fake I.D.
Yeah, it made me the hometown celebrity
Used to put her in park in a vacant lot
And I still can't believe we never got caught
When life was nothing more than living for the night

Just trying to steal a kiss on the tailgate of that ride
Good old days don't wash away
Just like that Georgia clay
All over everything
Every last memory
Man, it's all coming back to me
Ain't it funny how some things take you back?
When life was nothing more than living for the night
Just trying to steal a kiss on the tailgate of that ride
Good old days don't wash away
Man, some things they just don't change
Just like that Georgia clay
All over everything
Every last memory
It's all coming back to me

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Josh Kelley is a singer-songwriter who was born and raised in Augusta, Georgia. He began his musical odyssey at the age of 11 with a guitar. He later formed a band with his younger brother, Charles, during his teenage years called Inside Blue. At 14, the band released a five-song CD that struck the attention of a major label and led him to meeting James Brown on more than a few occasions.

Arriving at the University of Mississippi in Oxford, Mississippi, he had initial aspirations of being an art major, while also being a very capable golfer and a member of Kappa Sigma Fraternity.

Kelley released his indie album Changing Faces in 2001, signing with Hollywood in 2002. Working with John Alagia as his producer, Kelley released For The Ride Home in 2003. He also made an appearance at the Bonnaroo Music Festival in 2003. The song "Everybody Wants You" was recommended to be written by a friend to not forget who he is, while "Amazing" was possibly his first critically acclaimed hit.

Josh Kelley's 2011 record, Georgia Clay, was his first Country album; his previous work was more pop. Speaking with Songfacts in a 2011 interview, Kelley explained that Gone Like That was the song that actually started his journey into Country music. He said: "I had written and presented it to my music publisher to pitch to other artists, but they liked my demo so much they encouraged me to cut it. It was the first song I wrote that gave me the confidence to pursue a career as a Country singer."

His musical guise can be recognized akin to Jack Johnson, John Mayer, or Ben Harper.

Kelley remains a supporter of Napster-like sharing peer to peer applications for independent artists who have a difficult time receiving an audience. In fact, Kelley was "found" after accidentally targeting Eric Clinger at Hollywood Records with private spam messages using the Napster program.
