This song is about our souls lost somewhere on the shores of Mississipi
I rode to Missisipy right on my horse I drank a glass of whiskey, knew no remorse I caught an alligator then ate his heart I wanted to begin it all from the start
Cause I know that's my home My sweet home in Mississipi
I went to local saloon right to the bar I wasn't sure how I've survived so far I took another whiskey, still no remorse I drank it all and got back on my horse
