Mississippi
The 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
