Mississippi
4
Every step of the way
5
We walk the line
6
Your days are numbered
7
So are mine
8
Time is piling up
9
We struggle and we scrape
10
All boxed in
11
Nowhere to escape
12
The city's just a jungle
13
More games to play
14
I'm trapped in the heart of it
15
Trying to get away
16
I was raised in the country
17
Been working in the town
18
I been in trouble since I
19
Set my suitcase down
20
I ain't got nothing for you
21
I had nothing before
22
Don't even have anything
23
For myself anymore
24
Sky's full of fire
25
And the rain is pouring down
26
There's nothing you can sell me
27
So I'll see you around
28
All my powers of expression
29
And thoughts so sublime
30
Could never do you justice
31
Reason or rhyme
32
There's only one thing that I did wrong
33
I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
34
The devil's in the alley
35
The mule kickin' in the stall
36
Say anything you wanna
37
I've heard it all
38
I was thinking about the things that she said
39
I was dreaming I was sleeping in you bed
40
Walking through the leaves
41
Falling from the trees
42
Feel like a stranger nobody sees
43
So many things we never will undo
44
I know you're sorry, well I'm sorry too
45
Some people will offer you their hand and some won't
46
Last night I knew you, tonight I don't
47
I need something strong to distract my mind
48
I'm gonna look at you till my eyes go blind
49
Well I got here, following the southern star
50
I crossed that river just to be where you are
51
There's only one thing that I did wrong
52
I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
53
Well my ship's been split to splinters
54
I's sinking fast
55
I'm drowning in the poison
56
Got no future
57
Got no past
58
But my heart is not weary, it's light and it's free
59
I've got nothing but affection for those who've sailed with me
60
Everybody's moving if they ain't already there
61
Everybody's got to move somewhere
62
Well stick with me baby anyhow
63
Things should start to get interesting right about now
64
My clothes are wet
65
Tight on my skin
66
Not as tight as the corner that I painted myself in
67
I know that fortune is waiting to be kind
68
So give me your hand and say you'll be mine
69
The emptiness is endless
70
Cold as clay
71
You can always come back
72
But you can't come back all the way
73
Well there's only one thing that I did wrong
74
I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
75
Yeah the only thing that I did wrong
76
Was stayed in Mississippi a day too long
77
The only thing that I did wrong
78
Was stayed in Mississippi a day too long
