Miller's Cave

Harlan Howard


Way down in state of Georgia
'Mongst the swamps and the everglades
There's a big ol' hole in Tiger Mountain
God help the man who gets lost in Miller's Cave

I had me a girl in Waycross, Georgia
But she had unfaithful ways
Made me feel I was unwanted,
Like the bats and the bears in Miller's Cave

I caught her out, one Sunday morning
With a guy they call Big Dave
The meanest man in Waycross, Georgia
I'd rather fight a mountain lion in Miler's Cave

So I said, you'll pay, both you an' Davey
Cause I'll see you in your grave
They laughed at me and then I shot 'em
And I dragged their cheatin', schemin' bones to Millers Cave

I didn't like the way she did me
Guess I showed her I was brave
Most wanted man in the state of Georgia,
Their never gonna find me, cause I'm lost in Millers Cave
