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 then a get away Don't talk to yourself Cause after a while you might find Cause it feels those flat lands Might make you have to lose your mind
Feel the heat and the cold Cut the air with a knife Your just passing through it You never been there Your whole life!
So don't you know We'll get through it baby! I just don't see how You know it’s written on the faces of every little passing town…
The sun is sinking down on 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 Yeah All right
C’mon Mississippi yeah! Don't point your finger at me Just put me on the straight and narrow Just as far as my eyes can see
The sun is sinking down on the delta Seven miles is the only sign that lights our way I hope someone is there to care about me Im gonna tear this whole place down And I’ll be on my way!!
