Sugarland - Down in Mississippi lyrics

rate me

Friday, payday, Lordy got to get away

Had it with the wife thing, living on a shoe string

What's a poor girl got to do just to have some fun?

All these years without any help

Guess what, honey, clothes just don't wash themselves!

Neither do dishes, neither does the bathroom floor

So, now if anyone asks, not that they would

I'll be down in Mississippi and up to no good

No more, what a bore, had enough, I'm out the door

Headed for a breakdown, had it with the small town

Gonna call Lisa, gonna call Carla Sue

Now we're gonna let it roll, gonna let it rip

Gonna get us a nice room down on the strip

Not that we'll need it, there won't be any sleepin' tonight

So, now if anyone asks, not that they would

We'll be down in Mississippi and up to no good

Hammer down, here we go

Runnin' for the riverboat

All you're gonna see is asses and elbows

Luck's about to change for these three queens

Tired of getting' jokers, deal us up kings

Snake eyes, roll the dice, double down and hit me twice

Cashin' in the big chips, gonna leave a big tip

Hotter than a two dollar pistol, baby, I'm on fire

So, now if anyone asks, not that they would

I'll be down in Mississippi and up to no good

If anyone asks, not that they would

I'll be down in Mississippi and up to no good
