Mississippi The Chicks

[Verse 1]
Every step of the way we walk the line
Your days are numbered, so are mine
Time is pilin’ up, we struggle and we scrape
All boxed in, nowhere to escape

[Verse 2]
City’s just a jungle; more games to play
I'm trapped in the heart of it, tryin' to get away
I was raised in the country, been workin’ in the town
I been in trouble ever since I set my suitcase down

[Verse 3]
I got nothin' for you, I had nothin' before
Don’t even have anything for mysеlf anymore
Sky full of fire, and the rain is pourin’ down
Thеre's nothing you can sell me, so I’ll see you around

[Verse 4]
All my powers of expression and thoughts too sublime
Could never do you justice no reason or rhyme
Well there's only one thing I did wrong
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long

[Verse 5]
Devil's devil’s in the alley, mule’s kickin' in the stall
Say anything you wanna, I heard it all
I was thinkin’ 'bout the things that you said
I was dreaming I was sleepin' in your bed
