MississippiI know I'm big and proud all over, not just on the stagemy secret self has many sides that laugh and crush and sting I'm red and thick like fire I like it from behind round to back red to white I'm pure inside and silent [CHORUS:] I've got a piece of my heart on the sole of your shoe I've got a little bit of thunder trapped inside of that cloud that dog in you spit me out into the mississippi I know who can love my many selves the wife the bitch the rapunzel? the one who cries and calls for you the one who is always alone [CHORUS:] oh Mississippi come and wash my pain away oh Mississippi come and take my pain away I feel I'm drowning I feel I'm drowning I feel I'm... I feel I'm... dying [CHORUS x3] |
