[00:01.20]Written by：Bradley Walker
[00:13.78]Born from hippies back in sixty nine
[00:20.43]I was bored by 1992
[00:27.33]I walked into a recruitment office a year before that
[00:34.53]They said son we've been waiting for you
[00:41.88]Discharged from the Gulf War the very same year
[00:48.98]I came home with a carton or two
[00:56.20]Of cigarettes and mix tapes and bullets from a gun
[01:03.35]That my dead best friend never did use
[01:10.11]Oh Atlanta please need me like I needed you
[01:17.22]Let your sweaty embrace open wide
[01:24.31]'Cause Atlanta I'm falling like most people do
[01:32.10]And I need all your ground to survive
[01:50.17]Wasted and downtrodden only in vain
[01:56.50]I cried myself blind at the sight
[02:03.25]Of the old shopping center where we used to ride
[02:10.22]Now condos as sterile as I
[02:17.21]So I bought me an old air stream for three thousand bucks
[02:23.90]From a drug dealer I used to owe
[02:30.96]And I thought to myself as I slept off a high
[02:38.18]The irony is starting to show
[02:44.91]Oh Atlanta please need me like I needed you
[02:51.80]Let your sweaty embrace open wide
[02:59.08]'Cause Atlanta I'm falling like some people do
[03:06.63]And I need all your ground to survive
[03:24.60]Drove out to Asheville 'cause that's where you were
[03:30.96]Where you married into money and pills
[03:37.97]And I wanted so bad to be good with you now
[03:45.25]The fact is that you never will
[03:51.62]'Cause some become lovers because of the sex
[03:58.37]And some you know they just become friends
[04:05.36]In our case I just became bad at it all
[04:11.84]I never got good at it again
[04:19.49]Oh Atlanta please need me like I needed you
[04:26.78]Let your sweaty embrace open wide
[04:33.97]'Cause Atlanta I'm suffocating like some people do
[04:41.85]And I need all your air to survive
