Vince Gill

(feat. Lee Ann Womack)
If I can make Mississippi then Ill be alright
These ole white lines are lonely
On this two-lane tonight
Ive 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 Ill be alright
These ole white lines are lonely
And the headlights are bright
Ive 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
Im just so afraid
Ive 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
(Thanks to Nick for these lyrics)
