Intro
Verse 1
Every Step Of The Way We Walk The Line
Your Days Are Numbered, So Are Mine
Time Is Piling Up, We Struggle And We Scrape
All Boxed In, Nowhere To Escape
Interlude
Verse 2
The City's Just A Jungle, More Games To Play
I'm Trapped In The Heart Of It Trying To Get Away
I Was Raised In The Country
Been Working In The Town
I Been In Trouble Since I
Set My Suitcase Down
Verse 3
I Ain't Got Nothing For You, I Had Nothing Before
Don't Even Have Anything For Myself Anymore
Sky's Full Of Fire And The Rain Is Pouring Down
There's Nothing You Can Sell Me, So I'll See You Around
Verse 4
All My Powers Of Expression
And Thoughts So Sublime
Could Never Do You Justice
Reason Or Rhyme
Refrain
There's Only One Thing That I Did Wrong
I Stayed In Mississippi A Day Too Long
Interlude
Verse 5
The Devil's In The Alley, The Mule Kicking In The Stall
Say Anything You Want To, I've Heard It All
I Was Thinking About The Things That She Said
I Was Dreaming I Was Sleeping In Your Bed
Verse 6
Walking Through The Leaves, Falling From The Trees
Feel Like A Stranger Nobody Sees
So Many Things We Never Will Undo
I Know You're Sorry, Well I'm Sorry Too
Verse 7
Some People Will Offer You Their Hand And Some Won't
Last Night I Knew You, Tonight I Don't
I Need Something Strong To Distract My Mind
I'm Gonna Look At You Till My Eyes Go Blind
Verse 8
Well I Got Here, F Ollowing The Southern Star
I Crossed That River Just To Be Where You Are
Refrain
There's Only One Thing That I Did Wrong
I Stayed In Mississippi A Day Too Long
Interlude
Verse 9
Well My Ship's Been Split To Splinters, It's Sinking Fast
I'm Drowning In The Poison
Got No Future, Got No Past
But My Heart Is Not Weary, It's Light And It's Free
I've Got Nothing But Affection For Those Who've Sailed With Me
Verse 10
Everybody's Moving If They Ain't Already There
Everybody's Got To Move Somewhere
Well Stick With Me Baby Anyhow
Things Should Start To Get Interesting Right About Now
Verse 11
My Clothes Are Wet, Tight On My Skin
Not As Tight As The Corner That I Painted Myself In
I Know That Fortune Is Waiting To Be Kind
So Give Me Your Hand And Say You'll Be Mine
Verse 12
The Emptiness Is Endless, Cold As Clay
You Can Always Come Back
But You Can't Come Back All The Way
Refrain
There's Only One Thing That I Did Wrong
I Stayed In Mississippi A Day Too Long
Yeah, The Only Thing That I Did Wrong Was
Stay In Mississippi A Day Too Long
The Only Thing That I Did Wrong Was
Stay In Mississippi A Day Too Long
