lyrics

Mississippi River Heart

This night, this month, this year
Have left me tired used up all my tears
I’m half expecting gray hairs
Every time I look in the mirror

I left my heart down by the Mississippi River
Where it bends and it curves and teaches me to sing
And hold my world together with the strum of my guitar
And a song plucked from the howling wind

This road has brought me home,
It don’t feel like a home to me
You live, you change, you grow
It’s like squeezing into a pair of old jeans

I left my heart down by the Mississippi River
Where it bends and it curves and teaches me to sing
And hold my world together with the strum of my guitar
And a song plucked from the howling wind

Oh my heart lags behind my feet
Take my body anywhere
Just wait for the rest of me

I left my heart down by the Mississippi River
Where it bends and it curves and teaches me to sing
And hold my world together with the strum of my guitar
And a song plucked from the howling wind
