Well, way down yonder on the Chattahoochee1
It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie2
We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt
We got a little crazy but we never got caught.
Down by the river on a Friday night
Pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight
Talkin' 'bout cars and dreamin' 'bout women
Never had a plan, just a livin' for the minute.
Yeah, way down yonder on the Chattahoochee
Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me
But I learned how to swim and I learned who I was
A lot about livin' and a little 'bout love.
Aa-ha!
Well, we fogged up the windows in my old Chevy
I was willin' but she wasn't ready
So I settled for a burger and a grape snow-cone
I dropped her off early but I didn't go home.

Yeah-heh! That's right...
1. Chattahoochee River, it runs between Alabama and Georgia in the U.S.A.2. A Hoochie Coochie is a girlie club. Go-go girls.3. A pyramid of cans are empty beer cans that have been drunk at an outing. They are stacked much like trophies showing how much was drunk.
