Jackson, Mississippi

And when the sunshine showed Her face I felt like I was ready to die Went lookin' for a place to hide A hole I could crawl inside Long lines, whiskey bottles And the same old song I smell death in the air And I know it won't be long And I could say, I'm trying to change But that's just another lie It's been a day and a half And I'm still high And I feel like Jackson, Mississippi A river runnin' Like Jackson, Mississippi A river runnin' Like Jackson, Mississippi A river runnin' through my veins And when the daylight disappeared I took a good look inside Behind my pride I sat down and cried I know I'm not a fool But I don't know what's wrong Maybe it's time to pack And just move on And I could say I'm trying to change But that would just be a lie I'm lookin' for some one to tell me why
