Imogene Lyrics



I remember images of bridges crossed

And being left on the other side

I guess I died last somewhere near Savannah

Oh Imogene, can I take you down south in my dreams



Oh Imogene, everybody's playing good-time music

Could it be some sort of sign

That everybody's playing good-time music

But no one's having a good time



Simon, my best friend, he cut his hair

He added strings, became a millionaire

Oh it's all so simple so Simon says

Oh but Imogene, time goes by and so did I



Oh Imogene, everybody's playing good-time music

Could it be some sort of sign

Everybody's playing good-time music

But no one's having a good time



The sign on the border says welcome to Georgia

You don't have to go through Savannah no more

Oh nothing makes sense anymore

Why should I, why should I
