lirik lagu the chicks - mississippi
[verse 1]
every step of the way we walk the line
your days are numbered, so are mine
time is pilin’ up, we struggle and we scr~pe
all boxed in, nowhere to escape
[verse 2]
city’s just a jungle; more games to play
i’m trapped in the heart of it, tryin’ to get away
i was raised in the country, been workin’ in the town
i been in trouble ever since i set my suitcase down
[verse 3]
i got nothin’ for you, i had nothin’ before
don’t even have anything for mysеlf anymore
sky full of fire, and the rain is pourin’ down
thеre’s nothing you can sell me, so i’ll see you around
[verse 4]
all my powers of expression and thoughts too sublime
could never do you justice no reason or rhyme
well there’s only one thing i did wrong
stayed in mississippi a day too long
[verse 5]
devil’s devil’s in the alley, mule’s kickin’ in the stall
say anything you wanna, i heard it all
i was thinkin’ ’bout the things that you said
i was dreaming i was sleepin’ in your bed
[verse 6]
walking through the leaves, falling from the trees
feeling like a stranger n0body sees
well, so many things we never will undo
i know you’re sorry, oh i’m sorry too and
[verse 7]
some people offer you their hand and some won’t
last night i knew you, tonight i don’t
i need something strong to distract my mind
i’m gonna look at you ’til my eyes go blind
[verse 8]
well i got here followin’ the southern star
i crossed that river just to be where you are
there’s only one thing i did wrong
stayed in mississippi a day too long
[verse 9]
well my ship’s been split with splinters, it’s sinking’ fast
i’m drowning in the poison, got no future, got no past
but my eyeline’s not moving, it’s light and it’s free
i’ve got nothing but affection for those who’ve sailed with me
[verse 10]
everybody moving if they ain’t already there
everybody’s got to move somewhere
well, stick with me baby anyhow
things should start to get interesting right about now
[verse 11]
my clothes are wet, they’re tight on my skin
not as tight as the corner that i painted myself in
i know that fortune is reckon to be kind
so give me your hand and say you’ll be mine
[verse 12]
emptiness is endless, cold as the clay
you can always come back, but you can’t come back all the way
yeah there’s only one thing i did wrong
stayed in mississippi a day too long
yeah the only thing that i did wrong
stayed in mississippi a day too long
yeah the only thing that i did wrong
stayed in mississippi a day too long
