Georgia's Crying Girl

*a little something spooky  *

Georgia's Crying Girl

Georgia's crying girl
is haunting me tonight
oh I seen her walk past
then right out of sight
legend goes
she was killed at midnight
well the time is right
the little crying girl
makes her rounds
before daylight

It was rumored to be vicious
she was just a peasant
but she encountered her end
to men so unpleasant
or maybe it was just one
but she is crying still for mama
although she is long gone

So many have seen her
the stories all the same
she is still in those same clothes
she wore on that fateful day
long blond hair, with piercing blue eyes
enough in beauty
to alone make you cry
but she is stuck in between worlds
not yet released into the after life
is Georgia's crying girl

She is waiting for her peace
waiting for justice
walking the streets
in her bloodied bare feet
clothes torn of stab wounds
the ghastly reflection that looms
is she just another myth in Savannah
or part of the Georgia ghost rules.....
