Jon Langston - If You Ever Leave Atlanta

[Verse 1]
Headed north up 75 in a December Georgia rain that'll cut right through ya'
I stopped off for a can of snuff and a cup of coffee outside of Chattanooga
I'd turn this truck around, but my heart can't go back there
Girl, I know you're gone for good, but you didn't go nowhere

[Chorus]
As long as you're out Friday nights
Dancing in them Buckhead bars
Underneath them Peachtree lights
You won't find me where you are
I hate how that whole town is somewhere I can't go
Kinda wish I never had ya'
If you ever leave Atlanta, let me know

[Verse 2]
I sure hate thinking about missing out on a Braves game with my dad
If the Dawgs go back this year to Mercedes-Benz, I'm gonna wanna go real bad
But there ain't a chance in hell that I'll make either one
Close as I'll get to ATL is Milledgeville 441

[Chorus]
As long as you're out Friday nights
Dancing in them Buckhead bars
Underneath them Peachtree lights
You won't find me where you are
I hate how that whole town is somewhere I can't go
Kinda wish I never had ya'
If you ever leave Atlanta, let me know, baby
[Bridge]
I'd love to drink a beer or two
At Moon Dogs or The Attitude
That's something I can't do
'Cause I might run into you

[Chorus]
As long as you're out Friday nights
Dancing in them Buckhead bars
Underneath them Peachtree lights
You won't find me where you are
I hate how that whole town is somewhere I can't go
Kinda wish I never had ya'
If you ever leave Atlanta, let me know

[Post-Chorus]
You gotta let me know
If you ever leave, if you ever leave
If you ever leave Atlanta, let me know
