Mississippi Moon lyrics

[Verse 1]
You tell me you're lonely, I know how you feel
Leaning up at the bars, rocking back on my heels
She's a wild bird that wanders, too easy to stray
I knew she had to lose me to find her own way

[Chorus]
Oh, Corey, I'll be coming soon
Through the Louisiana pines to the Mississippi moon
Through the Louisiana pines to the Mississippi moon

[Verse 2]
A wave on the ocean, a whirlwind on the sand
I took a notion that her ship could not land
Then light me a candle in the forest so deep
Honey lay down here beside me, angels rock us to sleep

[Chorus]
Oh, Corey, I'll be coming soon
Through the Louisiana pines to the Mississippi moon
Through the Louisiana pines to the Mississippi moon
