Girl From Mississippi

Well the first time I seen her was in Greenville by the river

The way she grabbed my hand oooh it made me quiver

We went to the casino trying to win a little money

But ended up slow dancing all night to Tu Tupelo Honey

I've never been hurt by a girl from Mississippi

When she missed me she just kissed me

Love the way she drank that whiskey

I've never been hurt by a girl from Mississippi

Ain't no Cincinnati granny she drinks sweet tea like my nanny

Lookin back, she had that laugh

Leavin everything behind her in the past

No I've never been hurt must be something in that dirt

If you need me and can't find me I went back to Mississippi

Well we went down to Oxford for a concert at the Grove

Partied while the band put on a damn good show

Drove on down through Jackson and a town called Magee

All the way to Gulfport to get sun down at the beach

I've never been hurt by a girl from Mississippi

When she missed me she just kissed me

Love the way she drank that whiskey

I've never been hurt by a girl from Mississippi

Ain't no Cincinnati granny she drinks sweet tea like my nanny

Lookin back, she had that laugh

Leavin everything behind her in the past

No I've never been hurt must be something in that dirt

If you need me and can't find me I went back to Mississippi

Singing her a song, grand kids on the lawn

Her silhouette with that pink sunset is right where I belong

A lot of things have changed but one thing's stayed the same

Her and I will always have that Mississippi thang

I've never been hurt by a girl from Mississippi

When she missed me she just kissed me

Love the way she drank that whiskey

I've never been hurt by a girl from Mississippi

Ain't no Cincinnati granny she drinks sweet tea like my nanny

Lookin back, she had that laugh

Leavin everything behind her in the past

No I've never been hurt must be something in that dirt

If you need me and can't find me I went back to Mississippi
