Paula Cole - Mississippi lyrics

i know i'm big and proud all over not just on the stage my secret self has many sides that laugh and crush and sting i'm red and thick like fire i like it from behind round to back red to white i'm pure inside and silent CHORUS: i'm alive gotta piece of my heart on the sole of your shoe i've got a little bit of thunder trapped inside of a cloud the dog in you spit me out into the mississippi i know who can love my many selves the wife the b**h the rapunzel the one who cries and calls for you the one who is always alone chorus oh mississippi come and wash my pain away oh mississippi come and take my pain away i feel i'm drowning i feel i'm drowning i feel i'm i feel i'm dying chorus (3 times)
