Mississippi
Mississippi - 3:24
written by Billy Glover, BMI
V1:
Mississippi is cold in the summertime. Minnesota is warm come December 9.
New York City is a country scene. Paoli, Indiana is the place to be seen.
Chorus:
Things got a little mixed up when I was writing this tune
I wrote in the car (that makes it a cartoon)
Things got a little mixed up when I was picking this song
Some of it’s right, but mostly it’s wrong
V2:
Don’t you listen to any old Jack. He tell you what to do. And don’t you follow just because it’s new
You must decide what you’re gonna do. Don’t believe what you know ain’t true.
V2:
Love! -- something you can buy on the street
Money! -- gonna make you complete.
Down! -- is upside down.
Pills! -- gonna bring you ‘round.
Break:
Chorus:
Things got a little mixed up when I was writing this tune
I wrote in the car (you know what that makes it)
Things got a little mixed up when I was picking this song
Some of it’s right …
Some of it’s right…
Some of it’s right, but mostly it’s wrong
