When You Think Of Mississippi

(album: In It For The Money - 2021)

I'm tired of this town, sick of all its bars
So I'm out here sitting in the dark
Trying to clear my mind with some toolbox beers
Can't believe it's already been a year
Since you been gone, flew outta this place
They just played a song from back in the day
When you wore my Carhartt and this was our spot
Don't know about you girl, but I ain't forgot

Do you still smile every time you hear a cowbell?
When the Rebels win, do you still raise hell?
Would you trade a palm tree for a Magnolia?
If you were here now would ya let me hold ya?
Do you still sound like you're from this town
That you swore you'd never leave?
Girl, I miss ya
Wish you were with me
Do you ever miss me
When you think of Mississippi?

Every time I see her, yeah, she gives me a hug
Your momma brags about you and she catches me up
And I act surprised like I don't already know it
But really all I wanna know is

Do you still smile every time you hear a cowbell?
When the Rebels win, do you still raise hell?
Would you trade a palm tree for a Magnolia?
If you were here now would ya let me hold ya?
Do you still sound like you're from this town
That you swore you'd never leave?
Girl, I miss ya
Wish you were with me
Do you ever miss me
When you think of Mississippi?

When people ask you where you're from
Do you say it's where you grew up or call it home?
And if they ask you if you've ever been in love
Do you think about the tailgate I'm sitting on?

Do you still smile every time you hear a cowbell?
When the Rebels win, do you still raise hell?
Would you trade a palm tree for a Magnolia?
If you were here now would ya let me hold ya?
Do you still sound like you're from this town
That you swore you'd never leave?
Girl, I miss ya
Wish you were with me
Do you ever miss me
When you think of Mississippi?

When you think of Mississippi
When you think of Mississippi

I'm tired of this town, sick of all its bars
So I'm out here sitting in the dark
