lyrics

mississippi dreams and amphetamines
they helped you through the fall
lion-hearted fools with a lot to prove
laid down their lives for some land

i put my heart in a box
and locked the drugs in a drawer
left the sex on the bed
cause I've seen the movie before
the water weighed a ton
and brought us back to life
and worse at war
I've been waiting so long my girl

the rebellion at the gate in a simple twist of fate all went home and made love to their wives
mississippi dreams and eternity
they keep you here on earth

and it was always you
no matter how i try
I crossed an ocean
and hung a picture up
its rocket science
it wears a bible belt
but mama's dying
in mississippi
in mississippi dreams
