Lyrics
Mississippi Moon
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You tell me you're lonely, I know how you feel leaning up at the bars, rocking back on my heels she's a wild bird that wanders, too easy to stray I knew she had to lose me to find her own way
Chorus oh corey, I'll be coming soon through the louisiana pines to the mississippi moon through the louisiana pines to the mississippi moon
A wave on the ocean, a whirlwind on the sand I took a notion that her ship could not land then light me a candle in the forest so deep honey lay down here beside me, angels rock us to sleep
