Verse: 1
Aint gonna lie your headlights
Pulled into my drive tonight
Was a sight for sore eyes
Last thing I thought i'd see
Is something wrong what brought ya home
Was it tough out on your own
Did ya drive all the way here
just to see me
Was it the cotton fields strechtin' nearly county wide
Or them cool delta mornings or jackson nights
Did your interstate dreams turn into a dead end street
Was it the midnight blanket on a river bank
Or two names on a tupelo water tank
You climbed out on a boy who your heart still needs
So before I take ya back like that
Baby tell me one thing
Were ya missing Mississippi or me
Verse: 2
When you hit town was my house
The first place you thought about
Or have ya already been by
To see your momma and them
I want ya to know incase ya dont
I sure hated to see you go
Tell me what it was that
Brought ya back home again
Was it the cotton fields strechtin' nearly county wide
Or them cool delta mornings or jackson nights
Did your interstate dreams turn into a dead end street
Was it the midnight blanket on a river bank
Or two names on a tupelo water tank
Somethin' bout a boy back home who your heart still needs
So before I take ya back like that
Baby tell me one thing
Were ya missing Mississippi or me
Solo
Was it the cotton fields strechtin' nearly county wide
Or them cool delta mornings or jackson nights
Did your interstate dreams turn into a dead end street
Was it the midnight blanket on a river bank
Or two names on a tupelo water tank
Somethin' bout a boy back home who your heart still needs
So before I take ya back like that
Baby tell me one thing
Were ya missing Mississippi or me
