You always said you wanted things that sparkle And i could never buy a diamond ring I guess cowboy boots and houses in the country Never really were your kind of thing You swore up and down you didn't wanna leave me But you had to go and find some brighter lights I hope you know that i will always love you And pray to god you'll find a better life But just remember You can get lost in austin Lose your way in L.A Go nowhere in new orleans Same on san francisco bay If you ever do get lonely Well you know right where i'll be All alone in missin' you mississippi I hear new york city gets cold in the winter I know chicago's sure to blow your mind It hurts because i want so bad to hold you And i know you feel the same from time to time But if by chance you're ever down in dallas Or find yourself sad in san antone Girl you know i'll always leave the light on Baby, pack your bags and come back home Cause i know you know You can get lost in boston Lose your faith in santa fe Go nowhere up in nashville Waste your time on tampa bay If you ever do get lonely Well you know right where i'll be All alone in missin' you mississippi I'm all alone in missin' you mississippi
