|
Well, sometimes |
|
I get lonely |
|
And that's a hard thing to say |
|
Till I wound up in the wrong side of |
|
Mississippi |
|
A little more than a getaway |
|
Don't talk to yourself' |
|
Cause after a while you might find |
|
Those empty fields of flat lands |
|
Might make you have to lose your mind |
|
Feel the heat and the cold |
|
Cut the air with a knife |
|
But Georgia's is passing through it |
|
You never been there your whole life |
|
Well, don't you know it will get through baby? |
|
Well, I just don't see how |
|
You know it's written on the faces |
|
Of every little passing town |
|
The sun is sinking down over the delta |
|
Seven miles is the only sign that lights our way |
|
I hope someone is there to care about me |
|
I'm gonna tear this whole place down and |
|
I'll be on my way |
|
I'll be on my way, alright |
|
Well, let me get right down to it |
|
I just can't get enough |
|
You know you hate being down |
|
Before you're in love, be in love |
|
So come on |
|
Mississippi, yeah |
|
Don't point your finger at me |
|
Just put me on your straight and narrow |
|
Just as far as my eyes can see |
|
The sun is sinking down over the delta |
|
Seven miles is the only sign that lights our way |
|
I hope someone is there to care about me |
|
I'm gonna tear this whole place down and |
|
I'll be on my way |
|
I'm gonna tear this whole place down and |
|
I'll be on my way |
|
I'm gonna tear this whole place down and |
|
I'll be on my way |
|
I'll be on my way, |
|
I'll be on my way, on my way |
