Payton Rae - Mississippi's Crying lyrics

rate me

Songwriters: Fairchild, Shelly; Smith, Stephony

It keeps rainin' down the tear stained

Face of this lonely town, and I drown

And I keep reaching for one good reason

Why you said goodbye, and turned around

Oh, you're leavin' me in this empty state

And all I can see are dark clouds as you drive away

Mississippi's cryin', baby, Mississippi's sad

I think we just figured out you ain't comin' back

The sky can see you leavin', and it can't hold back the tears

Oh, it's pourin' down, and my heart thinks it's dying

Mississippi's crying

Mississippi's crying

The night keeps lookin' for headlights

Shinin' in the driveway, but they don't shine

And I keep thinkin' this crazy storm will

Drive you home, but not this time

Oh, my only wish is to change the weather

Are you coming back,or is it gonna rain forever

Mississippi's cryin', baby, Mississippi's sad

I think we just figured out you ain't comin' back

The sky can see you leavin', and it can't hold back the tears

Oh, it's pourin' down, and my heart thinks it's dying

Mississippi's crying

Mississippi's crying

Where you goin', baby, what's in Tennessee

You never said a word about Memphis

So who is she

It keeps rainin' down the tear stained

Face of this lonely town, and I drown
