LyricMeaning

Mississippi
Benjy Davis Project

Beggars can't be choosers

But I choose to be a beggar

So I'm always on the move

my heart is always on the mend


Hailstorms, rain, and snow, I go

No hurricane can stop me, no

It's up and over and back down home again


We played Memphis last night,

It was fine

Next stop on the tour

is bound to hold my peace of mind


Oh, It always puts

A smile on my face and it's the

first time I've been back here since

the last time that I came

And I think you're really pretty

and that's all I'm gonna say

Did you miss me?

Did you miss me, Mississippi?

Would you kiss me if I stayed?


That house was built before

the first world war

and I can see her now

standing on the porch

that baby boy's daddy's

going to fight and

She hopes and prays

that he'll come home

and they'll be happy and lord,

Lord, I pray that she's right


Wind's blowin' thru the trees

Oh, it feels like heaven's breathin' down on me


Oh, It always puts

A smile on my face and it's the

first time I've been back here since

the last time that I came

And I think you're really pretty


and that's all I'm wanna say

Did you miss me?

Did you miss me, Mississippi?

Would you kiss me if I stayed?

Oh, no, yeah


I have to leave you in the morning

That old 55 to 12

But I'll be back again

before the leaves turn orange

So, I'll say goodbye for now


Oh, It always puts

A smile on my face and it's the

first time I've been back here since

the last time that I came

And I think you're really pretty

and that's all I'm gonna say

Did you miss me?


Oh, It always puts

A smile on my face and it's the

first time I've been back here since

the last time that I came

And I think you're really pretty

and that's all I'm wanna say

Did you miss me?

Did you miss me, Mississippi?

Would you kiss me if I stayed?


Oh, oh, oh,

Oh, my god

da, da, da, da, da, da


oh, no, no

Ohhhhhhhh...

No, no, no

Na, na, na, na

da, da, da, da, da, da
