Verse:1
And when the sunshine showed
Her face I felt like I was ready to die
Went lookin for a place to hide
A hole I could crawl inside
Long lines
Whiskey bottles
And the same old song..
I smell death in the air
And I know it won't be long

And I could say I'm trying to change
But thats just another lie
It's been a day and a half
And I'm still high

Chorus
And I feel like Jackson Mississippi
A river runnin'
Like Jackson Mississippi
A river runnin'
J-J-Jackson Mississippi
A river runnin'
Like Jackson Mississippi
A river runnin' thru my veins

Verse:2
And when the daylight dissapeared
I took a good look inside
Behind my pride
I sat down and cried
I know I'm not a fool
But I dont know whats wrong
Maybe it's time to pack
And just move on

And I could say im trying to change
But that would just be a lie
Im lookin for someone to tell me why

Chorus
I feel like Jackson Mississippi
A river runnin'
Jackson Mississippi
A river runnin'
J-J-Jackson Mississippi
A river runnin'
Like Jackson Mississippi
A river runnin' thru my veins

A river runnin'...
A river.. runnin' thru my veins
A river runnin'... a thru my veins
A river... thats runnin' thru my veins
