Mississippi

You got a way of pullin' me back right out of the blue
No matter how far I get away from you
I can still see clouds in the sky
Mix with the white lines from all the jet planes
I used to dream about gettin' on one day and fly

Here inside these hotel walls
I wonder if you've changed at all
Am I still your favorite memory?

Mississippi, do you ever miss me?
It's been a while but you're always on my mind
Sometimes it hits me like a burnin' whiskey
That I'll never really ever say goodbye
Mississippi

I miss the nights, stars drippin' like diamonds
Skippin' rocks across the sky
What I wish I'd known
The time's gonna fly
But I'll always come back to you
'Cause you're my hallelujah, my home sweet home

Mississippi, do you ever miss me?
It's been a while but you're always on my mind
Sometimes it hits me like a burnin' whiskey
That I'll never really ever say goodbye
To you, Mississippi
Mississippi

You're the music in my head
The melody I can't forget
Half my heart is always gonna be
In Mississippi
Mississippi

Sometimes it hits me like a burnin' whiskey
That I'll never really ever say goodbye
Mississippi
Ooh, oh
