[Verse 1]
Well I know better than to think
That square town is missing me
When it never really knew me to begin with
Never packed my bags because of you
But if you'd ask I'da never moved
To a town where no one cares
Keeps it's winnings
I'll admit it
Well I still do
[Chorus]
So I'ma pour one out for Mississippi
Where I found a broken heart and I brought it with me
'Cause you, you never really can shake a memory
And doin' life alone's gettin' kinda tricky
If I drove back home not a soul would miss me
And the light at the end's gettin' hard to see
'Cause the way it is ain't never what it seems
But if anybody asks I'ma keep that shit between
Me and Tennessee
[Verse 2]
I put the livin' room up in smoke
Drive a quarter mile up the road
And then, pick a store on seventeen
He scans an Indiana fake ID
While he's standing there asking me
If I got some Friday night place to be
But it's just me
[Chorus]
So I'ma pour one out for Mississippi
Where I found a broken heart and I brought it with me
'Cause you, you never really can shake a memory
And doin' life alone's gettin' kinda tricky
If I drove back home not a soul would miss me
And the light at the end's gettin' hard to see
'Cause the way it is ain't never what it seems
But if anybody asks I'ma keep that shit between
Me and Tennessee
[Bridge]
Yeah, I bet the small town streets got you long moved on by now
'Cause me and Tennessee ain't something you think about
So I'ma pour one out
I'ma pour one out
[Chorus]
So I'ma pour one out for Mississippi
Where I found a broken heart and I brought it with me
'Cause you, you never really can shake a memory
And doin' life alone's gettin' kinda tricky
If I drove back home not a soul would miss me
And the light at the end's gettin' hard to see
'Cause the way it is ain't never what it seems
But if anybody asks I'ma keep that shit between
Me and Tennessee
But if anybody asks I'ma keep that shit between
Me and Tennessee
Between me and this grass at Tennessee
