Lyrics

(Dark old cave miller's cave)
Way down in the state of georgia through the swamps and everglades
There's a hole in tiger mountain god help the man who gets lost in miller's cave
I had a girl in way cross georgia but she had unfaithful ways
Made me feel I was unwanted like the birds and the bears in miller's cave
I couldn't stand the way she did me couldn't take her lowdown ways
Before I'll stay with the cheatin' woman I'll go live with the bears in miller's cave
(Dark old cave)
I caught her out one sunday morning with the man they call big dave
Meanest man in way cross georgia I'd rather fight a mountain lion in miller's cave
I said you'll pay both you and davy I'm gonna see you in your graves
They laughed at me and then I shot 'em
I took their cheatin' skin and bones in miller's cave
(Dark old cave)
That woman made me feel unwanted but I showed her I was brave
Most wanted man in the state of georgia
But they'll never find me cause I'm lost in miller's cave
