lyrics

She’s a Mississippi dream
She’s a Mississippi Queen
Prettiest girl I’ve ever seen
So fresh and so clean she comes with it
So long and lean and she’ll admit it

She was sitting at the end of the bar looking like a star
Drinking the white wine I’m playing my guitar
Beer buzzing and having a good time
She’s playing with her hair and damn it looks fine
It’s in a ponytail now it’s falling down again
I can’t help but stare no other woman could content without a gold mine
Somebody walk over and tell her she’s a gold mine

She’s a Mississippi dream
She’s a Mississippi Queen
Prettiest girl I’ve ever seen
So fresh and so clean she comes with it
So long and lean and she’ll admit it

I took a break and we talked a bit
I can’t believe I fell in love so quick
She had those deep blue eyes and a real quick wit
She said that she was single that’s when I said shit
Said she grew up in Jackson Mississippi
She was visiting Nashville on her way to Cincinnati
To chase a dream about singing a hit
Man she ain’t even been downtown yet

She’s a Mississippi dream
She’s a Mississippi Queen
Prettiest girl I’ve ever seen
So fresh and so clean she comes with it
So long and lean and she’ll admit it
Such southern style that’ll get it
Just give me a smile and we’ll hit it
