Lyrics Mississippi - The Chicks
Every
step
of
the
way
we
walk
the
line
Your
days
are
numbered,
so
are
mine
Time
is
piling
up,
we
struggle
and
we
scrape
All
boxed
in,
nowhere
to
escape
The
city′s
just
a
jungle,
more
games
to
play
I'm
trapped
in
the
heart
of
it,
tryin′
to
get
away
I
was
raised
in
the
country,
been
working
in
the
town
I've
been
in
trouble
since
I
set
my
suitcase
down
and
I
got
nothing
for
you,
I
had
nothing
before
Don't
even
have
anything
for
myself
anymore
Sky′s
full
of
fire
and
the
rain
is
pouring
down
There′s
nothing
you
can
sell
me
so
I'll
see
you
around
All
my
powers
of
expression
and
thoughts
so
sublime
Could
never
do
you
justice,
no
reason
or
rhyme
There′s
only
one
thing
I
did
wrong
I
stayed
in
Mississippi
a
day
too
long
Devil's
in
the
alley,
mule
kickin′
in
the
stall
Say
anything
you
wanna,
I've
heard
it
all
I
was
thinking
about
the
things
that
you
said
I
was
dreaming
I
was
sleeping
in
your
bed
Walking
through
the
leaves
falling
from
the
trees
Feel
like
a
stranger
nobody
sees
Well,
so
many
things
we
never
will
undo
I
know
you′re
sorry,
oh,
I'm
sorry
too
Some
people
offer
you
their
hand
and
some
won't
Last
night
I
knew
you,
tonight
I
don′t
I
need
something
strong
to
distract
my
mind
I′m
gonna
look
at
you
'til
my
eyes
go
blind
Well
I
got
here,
following
the
southern
star
I
crossed
that
river
just
to
be
where
you
are
There′s
only
one
thing
I
did
wrong
I
stayed
in
Mississippi
a
day
too
long
Well
my
ship's
been
split
to
splinters,
it′s
sinking
fast
I'm
drowning
in
the
poison,
got
no
future,
got
no
past
But
my
eyeline′s
not
movin',
it's
light
and
it′s
free
I
got
nothing
but
affection
for
those
who′ve
sailed
with
me
And
everybody's
moving
if
they
ain′t
already
there
Everybody's
got
to
move
somewhere
Well
stick
with
me
baby
anyhow
Things
should
start
to
get
interesting
right
about
now
And
my
clothes
are
wet,
they′re
tight
on
my
skin
Not
as
tight
as
the
corner
that
I
painted
myself
in
I
know
that
fortune
is
waiting
to
be
kind
So
give
me
your
hand
and
say
you'll
be
mine
Emptiness
is
endless,
cold
as
clay
You
can
always
come
back
but
you
can′t
come
back
all
the
way
Yeah,
there's
only
one
thing
that
I
did
wrong
I
stayed
in
Mississippi
a
day
too
long
Yeah,
the
only
thing
that
I
did
wrong
I
stayed
in
Mississippi
a
day
too
long
Yeah,
the
only
thing
that
I
did
wrong
I
stayed
in
Mississippi
a
day
too
long
