Lyric 4 To 1 In Atlanta

(Bill Kenner/L. Russell Brown)

Oh wild Billy told me even I would have a chance
If I took a trip down the Georgia highway and asked some girl to dance
Billy said he d been there - had the best time of his life
He went to stay for the weekend and he came back with a wife

It s 4 to 1 in Atlanta, I m gonna get lucky tonight
The girls are in my favor and if I play my cards just right
I might find an angel whose fire I can light
It s 4 to 1 in Atlanta and I m on my way tonight

I can t wait to get there I know she s waiting for me
With eyes as blue as Texas skies like I ain t never seen
And as I think about it my heart starts to pound
I throw this thing into lower gear and crush that hammer down

It s 4 to 1 in Atlanta, I m gonna get lucky tonight
The girls are in my favor and if I play my cards just right
I might find an angel whose fire I can light
It s 4 to 1 in Atlanta and I m on my way tonight

Here comes a confrontation with the highway patrol
I hope beneath those flashing lights there s an understanding soul
I ve only got one story - I m a man without love
Can we talk about it ma am before you write me up

It s 4 to 1 in Atlanta, I m gonna get lucky tonight
The girls are in my favor and if I play my cards just right
I might find an angel whose fire I can light
It s 4 to 1 in Atlanta and I m on my way tonight
I m on my way tonight
