Who is "Georgia"?

I always hum along to John Mayer's "Why Georgia" and I just realized I have no earthly idea who Georgia is. Or if it refers to the U.S. state.

But you gotta hand it to John Mayer. The guy knows how to put his words together. Nothing too profound but just honest, give-it-to-me-straight-without-a-chaser kinda thing.

Because I wonder sometimes
about the outcome
of a still verdictless life

Am i living it right?
am i living it right?
am i living it right?

I like that. My thoughts exactly! So I guess not getting the part about Georgia is not that big a deal. But if anyone of you out there knows who/what Mayer was referring to, drop me a line, will you? It's all in the pursuit of knowledge. Amen.
