LyricMeaning

Mississippi In July
Charlie Worsham

These delta roads, everyone I know

By the cotton fields and railroad tracks.

It's more than just the heat, most folks

Who would get the chance to leave but don't come back.

Last time I thought about you in a wedding dress

I would've been holding your hand.

But at seventeen you promise things

That you don't really understand.


Mississippi in July, magnolia moonlight

The warm wind was just right for staying up all night

And letting love fly; Mississippi in July.


My heart might as well be one of those canes

Tied to the back of your limousine.

It was hanging by a thread, so I went ahead

And cut the string.

If I asked you way back when, if you'd take my hand

Would you say I do?


I'm supposed to hope you're happy,

But letting go don't feel the way it's supposed to.


Mississippi in July, magnolia moonlight

The warm wind was just right for staying up all night

And letting love fly; Mississippi in July.


Magnolia moonlight

The warm wind was just right for staying up all night

But some memories never die, honeysuckle kisses

If I could live on wishes, I'd stay here all the time

Oh, Mississippi in July.

Mississippi in July.


These delta roads, everyone I know

By the cotton fields and railroad tracks.
