Ray Charles', "Georgia On My Mind"
The Lyrics:
Georgia, Georgia The whole day through Just an old sweet song Keeps Georgia on my mind
Why:
Ray Charles' 1960 #1 smash hit "Georgia On My Mind" has both in the title and the opening verse the mentions of the state of Georgia. And it would be derelict of me, living at the current time in Georgia, not to post "Georgia On My Mind" as a song with the mention of place in it, since the state legislature of Georgia officially adopted "Georgia On My Mind" as the state song back in 1979 to honor the native Georgian son, Ray Charles. It's also a great advertising song for the state tourism industry.
