Mississippi's Cryin'

It keeps rainin' down the tear stained face of this

lonely town

And I drown

And I keep reachin' for one good reason why you said

goodbye

Turn around

Oh, you're leaving me in this empty state

And all I see are dark clouds as you drive away

Mississippi's cryin', baby, Mississippi's sad

I think we just figured out you ain't coming back

The sky can see you leavin' and it can't hold back the

tears

It's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dying

Mississippi's cryin'

Now he keeps looking for headlights shining in this

driveway

But they don't shine

And I keep hopin' this crazy storm will drive you home

But not this time

Oh, my only wish is to change the weather

Are you coming back? Or is it gonna rain forever?

Mississippi's cryin', baby, Mississippi's sad

I think we just figured out you ain't coming back

The sky can see you leavin' and it can't hold back the

tears

It's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dying

Mississippi's cryin', Mississippi's cryin'

Where you going, baby?

What's in Tennessee?

You never said a word about Memphis

So who is she?

It keeps raining down the tear stained face of this

lonely town

And I drown

Mississippi's cryin', baby, Mississippi's sad

I think we just figured out you ain't coming back

The sky can see you leavin' and it can't hold back the

tears

It's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dying

Mississippi's cryin', Mississippi's cryin'
