Gill Vince - If I Can Make Mississippi (featuring Lee Ann Womack) lyrics

(feat. Lee Ann Womack)

If I can make Mississippi then I'll be alright

These ole white lines are lonely

On this two-lane tonight

I've got enough whiskey to keep me warm

Till the mornin' light

If I could make Mississippi, Mississippi tonight

I headed out west to seek my fortune and fame

I sure made a mess, took it all but my name

Why I ever left I can never explain

If I can make Mississippi through this pouring rain

If I can make Mississippi, then I'll be alright

These ole white lines are lonely

And the headlights are bright

I've got enough whiskey to keep me warm

Till the mornin' light

If I could make Mississippi, Mississippi tonight

She said she would wait

Said our love was strong

I'm just so afraid

I've been gone for too long

When I walk through that gate

Will she be there or long, long gone

If I could make Mississippi

If I could make it back home

If I could make Mississippi

If I could make it back home
