Mississippi Girl lyrics

Well it's a long way from Star, Mississippi

To the big stage I'm singing on tonight

And sometimes the butterflies still get me

When I'm in the spotlight

And some people seem to think that I've changed

That I'm different than I was back then

But in my soul I know that I'm the same way

That I really always been

[Chorus:]

Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways

Just cause everybody knows her name

Ain't big-headed from a little bit of fame

I still like wearing my old ball cap

Ride my kids around piggy back

They might know me all around this world

But y'all I'm still a Mississippi girl

Well I spent a few weeks in California

They put my face on the big movie screen

But that don't mean I've forgotten where I came from

That's just me chasing dreams, yeah

[Chorus:]

Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways

Just cause everybody knows her name

Ain't big headed from a little bit of fame

I still like wearing my old ball cap

Ride my kids around piggy back

They might know me all around this world

But y'all I'm still a Mississippi girl

Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways

Just cause everybody knows her name

Ain't big headed from a little bit of fame

I still like wearing my old ball cap

Ride my kids around piggy back

They might know me all around this world

But y'all I'm still a Mississippi girl

Mississippi girl

oh

Mississippi girl

Mississippi girl

yeah yeah

oh oh

Mississippi girl
