Goodnight Mississippi Lyrics by Drew Kennedy

Hillbilly Pilgrim

0

Goodnight Mississippi, goodnight abiliee
Goodnight all you wild hope [?] with broken dreams
Goodnight to the harbor, and all the ships at sea
Sailin' on their lonely [?] just like me
In a way it's funny that I don't know where I am
I'm afraid to tell you just what state I'm in
The reflection in the mirror can't point me to my home
That's a scary thought when you're all alone
Tonight I'm in Austin and I'm thinkin' of you
And all the stupid bullsht that I put you through
Smoke curls up a halo, and I blew it away
The irony of a cigarette at the end of the day
In a way it's funny that I don't know where I am
I'm afraid to tell you just what state I'm in
The reflection in the mirror can't point me to my home
That's a scary thought when you're all alone
So goodnight Mississippi, the sun is sinkin' low
I hope somewhere the twilight finds a telephone
Dials up your number, just to hear you say
How much you miss me and I should come home right away
Yeah it's funny that I don't know where I am
I'm ashamed to tell you just what state I'm in
The reflection in the mirror can't point me to my home
That's a scary thought when you're all alone
