Lyrics Mississippi Or Me - Riley Green

I ain't gonna lie, when those headlights pulled into my drive tonight
Was a sight for sore eyes, last thing I thought I'd see
And is somethin' wrong? What brought you home?
Was it tough out on your own
Or did you drive all the way down here just to see me?

Or was it the cotton fields stretchin' nearly county-wide?
Them cool Delta mornings or the Jackson nights?
Did your interstate dreams turn into a dead-end street?
Was it a midnight blanket on a riverbank?
Two names on a Tupelo water tank?
Was it somethin' 'bout a boy back home that your heart still needs?
Were you missin' Mississippi or me?

When you hit town, was my house the first stop you thought about
Or you already been by to see your mama and them?
And I want you to know, in case you don't, I sure hated to see you go
Just tell me what it was that brought you back home again

Was it the cotton fields stretchin' nearly county-wide?
Them cool Delta mornings or the Jackson nights?
Did your interstate dreams turn into a dead-end street?
Was it a midnight blanket on a riverbank
Or two names on a Tupelo water tank?
Was it somethin' 'bout a boy back home that your heart still needs?
Were you missin' Mississippi or me?
Yeah, were you missin' Mississippi or me?

Are you back for good, or just passin' through?
Do you need me like I need you?

Or was it the cotton fields stretchin' nearly county-wide?
Them cool Delta mornings or the Jackson nights?
Did your interstate dreams turn into a dead-end street?
Was it a midnight blanket on a riverbank?
Two names on a Tupelo water tank?
Was it somethin' 'bout a boy back home that your heart still needs?
So before I take you back like that, baby, tell me one thing
Were you missin' Mississippi or me?

Whoa, were you missin' Mississippi or me?
