1
Every step of the way
2
We walk the line
3
Your days are numbered
4
So are mine
5
Time is piling up
6
We struggle and we scrape
7
We're all boxed in
8
Nowhere to escape
9
City's just a jungle
10
More games to play
11
I'm trapped in the heart of it
12
Trying to get away
13
I was raised in the country
14
Been working in the town
15
I been in trouble since I
16
Set my suitcase down
17
I ain't got nothing for you
18
I had nothing before
19
Don't even do anything
20
For myself anymore
21
Sky's full of fire
22
Rain pouring down
23
There's nothing you can sell me
24
So I'll see you around
25
All my powers of expression
26
And thoughts so sublime
27
Could never do you justice
28
In reason or rhyme
29
Well there's only one thing I did wrong
30
I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
31
The devil's in the alley, mule kicking in the stall
32
Say anything you wanna, I've heard it all
33
I was thinking about the things that you said
34
I was dreaming I was sleeping in your bed
35
Walking through the leaves, falling from the trees
36
Feelin' like a stranger nobody sees
37
Well so many things we never will undo
38
I know you're sorry, well I'm sorry too
39
Some people'll offer you their hand and some won't
40
Last night I knew you, tonight I don't
41
I need something strong to distract my mind
42
I'm gonna look at you 'til my eyes go blind
43
Well I got here, following the southern star
44
I crossed that river just to be where you are
45
There's only one thing that I did wrong
46
I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
47
Well my ship's been split to splinters; it's sinking fast
48
I'm drowning in the poison, got no future, got no past
49
But my heart is not weary, and smiling's free
50
I've got nothing but affection for those who've sailed with me
51
Everybody's moving if they ain't already there
52
Everybody's got to move somewhere
53
Well stick with me baby anyhow
54
Things should start to get interesting right about now
55
My clothes are wet, tight on my skin
56
Not as tight as the corner that I painted myself in
57
I know that fortune is waiting to be kind
58
So give me your hand and say you'll be mine
59
The emptiness is endless, gold is gray
60
You can always go back, but you can't go back all the way
61
Well there's only one thing that I did wrong
62
I stayed in Mississippi a day too long
63
Yeah the only thing that I did wrong
64
Was stayed in Mississippi a day too long
65
The only thing that I did wrong
66
Was stayed in Mississippi a day too long
