Mississippi cry

Lone
Ol dirt road
Walkin on away
On a lone
Ol dirt road
Walkin on away
They say I don't belong
Well I better go away

Lightnin and thunder
Crash
Above my head
I feel like sleepin
In cold grave
Than walkin this gravel road
My feet done bled

Somethin
Is in behind me
Telling me I can't stay
I can't die
Won't let me
Guess I gotta walk away

No mo workin
No mo churchin
No mo sweet tea
Gone have to do without me

I'm alone
Lone ol dirt road
Walkin on away
Say I'm never gone belong
Well I better go away

I hear em comin
I hear em comin
For me
Faster I start walkin alone
Gotta leave my home
I can't stay
I better go away
