Margaret Durante - Mississippi's Crying lyrics

[Verse 1:] It keeps raining Down the tear stained face of this lonely town And I drown And I keep reaching For one good reason why you said goodbye Turn around Oh, you're leaving me in this empty state And all I see are dark clouds as you drive away [Chorus:] Mississippi's crying, baby Mississippi's sad I think we just figured out you ain't coming back The sky can see you leaving And it can't hold back the tears It's pouring down And my heart thinks it's dying Mississippi's crying [Verse 2:] Now he keeps looking for headlights Shining in this driveway But they don't shine And I keep hoping this crazy storm will drive you home But not this time Oh, my only wish is to change the weather Are you coming back? Or is it gonna rain forever? [Repeat Chorus:] [Bridge:] Where you going, baby? What's in Tennessee? You never said a word about Memphis So who is she? It keeps raining down The tear stained face of this lonely town And I drown [Repeat Chorus:]
