Bob Dylan
Mississippi

Every step of the way, we walk the line
Your days are numbered, so are mine
Time is piling up, we struggle and we stray
We're all boxed in, nowhere to escape

City's just a jungle, more games to play
Trapped in the heart of it, tryin' to get away
I was raised in the country, I been working in the town
I been in trouble ever since I set my suitcase down

Got nothing for you, I had nothing before
Don't even have anything for myself anymore
Sky full of fire, came pouring down
Nothing you can sell me, I'll see you around

All my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime
Could never do you justice in reason or rhyme
Only one thing I did wrong
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long

Well, the devil's in the alley, mule's in the stall
Say anything you wanna, I have heard it all
I was thinking about the things that Rosie said
I was dreaming I was sleeping in Rosie's bed

Walking through the leaves, falling from the trees
Feeling like a stranger nobody sees
So many things that we never will undo
I know you're sorry, I'm sorry too

Some people will offer you their hand and some won't
Last night I knew you, tonight I don't
I need something strong to distract my mind
I'm gonna look at you 'til my eyes go blind

Well I got here following the southern star
I crossed that river just to be where you are
Only one thing I did wrong
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long

Well my ship's been split to splinters and it's sinking fast
I'm drowning in the poison, got no future, got no past
But my heart is not weary, it's light and it's free
I've got nothing but affection for all those who sailed with me

Everybody's moving, if they ain't already there
Everybody's got to move somewhere
Stick with me baby, stick with me anyhow
Things should start to get interesting right about now

My clothes are wet, tight on my skin
Not as tight as the corner that I painted myself in
I know that fortune is waiting to be kind
So give me your hand and say you'll be mine

Well, the emptiness is endless, cold as the clay
You can always come back, but you can't come back all the way
Only one thing I did wrong
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long.


Mirror lyrics:

Stayed in Mississippi a day too long.
Only one thing I did wrong
You can always come back, but you can't come back all the way
Well, the emptiness is endless, cold as the clay

So give me your hand and say you'll be mine
I know that fortune is waiting to be kind
Not as tight as the corner that I painted myself in
My clothes are wet, tight on my skin

Things should start to get interesting right about now
Stick with me baby, stick with me anyhow
Everybody's got to move somewhere
Everybody's moving, if they ain't already there

I've got nothing but affection for all those who sailed with me
But my heart is not weary, it's light and it's free
I'm drowning in the poison, got no future, got no past
Well my ship's been split to splinters and it's sinking fast

Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
Only one thing I did wrong
I crossed that river just to be where you are
Well I got here following the southern star

I'm gonna look at you 'til my eyes go blind
I need something strong to distract my mind
Last night I knew you, tonight I don't
Some people will offer you their hand and some won't

I know you're sorry, I'm sorry too
So many things that we never will undo
Feeling like a stranger nobody sees
Walking through the leaves, falling from the trees

I was dreaming I was sleeping in Rosie's bed
I was thinking about the things that Rosie said
Say anything you wanna, I have heard it all
Well, the devil's in the alley, mule's in the stall

Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
Only one thing I did wrong
Could never do you justice in reason or rhyme
All my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime

Nothing you can sell me, I'll see you around
Sky full of fire, came pouring down
Don't even have anything for myself anymore
Got nothing for you, I had nothing before

I been in trouble ever since I set my suitcase down
I was raised in the country, I been working in the town
Trapped in the heart of it, tryin' to get away
City's just a jungle, more games to play

We're all boxed in, nowhere to escape
Time is piling up, we struggle and we stray
Your days are numbered, so are mine
Every step of the way, we walk the line
