LECADE - Mississippi

Well, I got stoned out my mind
And now my bottle's high and dry
Well, if I leave this place by nine
Then I might find 59
It might feel wrong across those lines
It's probably all a waste of time
Well, if I leave this place by nine
Well then I might get home alive

I hear these songs about Tennessee
Cold beer and old man whiskey
And all them Florida bound parties on the beach (parties on the beach)
Yeah, I've heard of Carolina
And Georgia sounds nice too (Georgia sounds nice too)
But there's one place that'd I rather be
I'm headed back to Mississippi

And I can't spend another night (can't spend another night)
Beneath that flashing neon light
'Cause that's one more thing my heart'll hold against me
I'm headed back to Mississippi

I don't think this place will fix me any time soon
But this white paint on my heart shows shades of blue
And I know all these old wood doors been slammed a time or two
But to me, they feel brand new

I hear these songs about Tennessee
Cold beer and old man whiskey
And all those Florida, 'Bama parties on the beach (parties on the beach)
Yeah, I've heard of Carolina
And Georgia sounds nice too (Georgia sounds nice too)
But there's one place that'd I rather be
I'm headed back to Mississippi

And I can't spend another night (can't spend another night)
Beneath that flashing neon light
'Cause that's one more thing my heart'll hold against me
I'm headed back to Mississippi
