  • Every step of the way, we walk the line
    Your days are numbered, so are mine
    Time is piling up, we struggle and we stray
    We're all boxed in, nowhere to escape
    City's just a jungle, more games to play
    Trapped in the heart of it, tryin' to get away
    I was raised in the country, I been working in the town
    I been in trouble ever since I set my suitcase down
    Got nothing for you, I had nothing before
    Don't even have anything for myself anymore
    Sky full of fire, Pain pouring down
    Nothing you can sell me, I'll see you around
    All my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime
    Could never do you justice in reason or rhyme
    Only one thing I did wrong
    Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
    Well, the devil's in the alley, mule's in the stall
    Say anything you wanna, I have heard it all
    I was thinking about the things that Rosie said
    I was dreaming I was sleeping in Rosie's bed
    Walking through the leaves, falling from the trees
    Feeling like a stranger nobody sees
    So many things that we never will undo
    I know you're sorry, I'm sorry too
    Some people will offer you their hand and some won't
    Last night I knew you, tonight I don't
    I need something strong to distract my mind
    I'm gonna look at you 'til my eyes go blind
    Well I got here following the southern star
    I crossed that river just to be where you are
    Only one thing I did wrong
    Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
    Well my ship's been split to splinters and it's sinking fast
    I'm drowning in the poison, got no future, got no past
    But my heart is not weary, it's light and it's free
    I've got nothing but affection for all those who sailed with me
    Everybody's moving, if they ain't already there
    Everybody's got to move somewhere
    Stick with me baby, stick with me anyhow
    Things should start to get interesting right about now
    My clothes are wet, tight on my skin
    Not as tight as the corner that I painted myself in
    I know that fortune is waiting to be kind
    So give me your hand and say you'll be mine
    Well, the emptiness is endless, cold as the clay
    You can always come back, but you can't come back all the way
    Only one thing I did wrong
    Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
