Mississippi Moon (Live at Merriweather Post Pavilion, Columbia, MD, September 1, 1989) 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 wandered, too easy to stray
I knew she'd have to lose me to find her own way

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

[Verse 2]
A trip on the ocean, a whirlwind on the sand
I took a notion that her ship would not land
So 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
From the Louisiana pinе to the Mississippi moon
From the Louisiana pine to thе Mississippi moon

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
A wave on the ocean, a whirlwind on the sand
I took a notion that her ship would not land
So light me a candle in the forest so deep
Honey, lay down beside me, angels rock us to sleep
[Chorus]
Oh Corey, I'll be coming soon
From the Louisiana pine to the Mississippi moon
From the Louisiana pine to the Mississippi moon
