lyrics
Betty Lou and William Andrew
came up in these hills of clay
Little dirt road country town
from some long forgotten day
I’d spend summers at grandma’s house
playing cards & catching fish
We’d go down to the blueberry festival
those simpler times I so miss
Bruce left town, went out in the world
became a doctor so fine
When he came back home to set up shop
he'd found this whole world in decline
Alma GA… calls me back somehow
Alma GA…. she’s just a ghost town
She’s just a ghost town now
Rusted roofs on abandoned farms
not much left to see
Bout the only thing I’ve got left around here
is the Rose Hill Cemetery
They’ve all passed on, and the clock stands still, in this
frozen place in time
But the faded memories of this little ol town
still tug at this heart of mine
Alma GA… calls me back somehow
Alma GA…. she’s just a ghost town
She’s just a ghost town now
