LAST NAME WAS RAGE is lyrics I sang off the tip-of-my-tongue and out-of-my-mind just suddenly to a guy's guitar playin' at a local Open Mic on a kind'a dead night there...goodness knows where it came from, but it lives now, so here it be!....

LAST NAME WAS RAGE

I was 'hummin' 'bout Georgia Peaches
I was jus' hummin' then I recalled this Song
An' the Girl who jus' sang it who's real name was Peaches
An the Girl who jus' sang it who's last name was Rage
Yeah, her last name was Rage
An' her last name was Rage
This Georgia Girl sang and her last name was Rage

I was jus' recollectin' how she jumped freight trains
She jus' jumped trains way the hobos all do
My Ma called her White Trash tho we was all poor too
My Ma said don't play with that Family named Rage
Their last name was Rage
An' her last name was Rage
Peaches jumped trains and her last name was Rage

Onc't she came back for the Miss Peaches Contest
An' she almost won, bein' strawberry blonde an' all
Til some biddy called Ain't that Peaches from Statesboro?
The one they call Peaches from that Family named Rage?
Yeah, my Family is Rage
An' my last name is Rage
An' I'm madder then Hell and my last name is Rage

Well I don't go Home much to Tobacca Town where
The Peaches and Back Roads stay still in the sun
But I sure do remember that Girl and her name an' all
Who never lost onc't an' there was nothin' she won
Cuz her last name was Rage
An' she lived full'a Rage
Peaches left long ago - she jus' left full'a Rage...
Her Family was Rage
An' her last name was Rage
She was Wilder than Wild and her last name was Rage
