Well given the tall grass you´re livin´ in
It´s not ideal to keep fire in your life
And the desert winds keep pickin´ on me
As I´m makin´ it down the line

Sorry it burned so unexpectedly
But it ain´t goin´ out with the rain in your eyes
Mississippi burnin´ in the middle of
The raging wind tonight

Black gold and coal´s open on the throttle
Get me the hell away
From that Mason-Dixon line
Sit on the floor and lock the door,
Dancin´ with a bottle
Takin´ it home where the buffalo roam on track 29
Track 29

Given the tone of your delivery
Yeah how about I see you kinda blew right by
And the desert winds keep trickin´ me
Then I hear your words arrive

She said she found the arms of another man
Well to tell you the truth man
She should´ve lied
Mississippi lyin´ in the middle
Of a bed of nails tonight

Black gold and coal´s open on the throttle
Get me the hell away
From that Mason-Dixon line
Sit on the floor and lock the door,
Dancin´ with a bottle
Takin´ it home where the buffalo roam on track 29
