Mississippi Or Me

歌詞

I ain't gonna lie, when those headlights pulled into my drive tonight Was a sight for sore eyes, last thing I thought I'd see And is something wrong, what brought you home, was it tough out on your own Or did you drive all the way down here just to see me Or was it the cotton fields stretchin' nearly countywide Them cool delta mornings or the Jackson nights Did your interstate dreams turn into a dead-end street Was it a midnight blanket on a river bank Two names on a Tupelo water tank Was it somethin' bout a boy back home that your heart still needs Were you missin' Mississippi or me When you hit town, was my house the first stop you thought about Or you already been by to see your mama and them And I want you to know, in case you don't, I sure hated to see you go Just tell me what it was that brought you back home again Was it the cotton fields stretchin' nearly countywide Them cool delta mornings or the Jackson nights Did your interstate dreams turn into a dead-end street Was it a midnight blanket on a river bank Or two names on a Tupelo water tank Was it somethin' bout a boy back home that your heart still needs Were you missin' Mississippi or me Yeah were you missin' Mississippi or me Are you back for good or just passin' thorugh Do you need me like I need you Or was it the cotton fields stretchin' nearly countywide Them cool delta mornings or the Jackson nights Did your interstate dreams turn into a dead-end street Was it a midnight blanket on a river bank Two names on a Tupelo water tank Was it somethin' bout a boy back home that your heart still needs So before I take you back like that, baby, tell me one thing Were you missin' Mississippi or me Oh were you missin' Mississippi or me
