Lights Out In Mississippi Lyrics - Singles - Patent Pending

there's no hope in Cincinnati or a town like Baton Rouge 

i can offer you Chicago, still there's nothing i can do 

so i'm holding fast to Houston, as you scream Niagara Falls 

and i hope and pray you won't return at all 

as the lights burn out in Mississippi 

as the tears roll down in old St. Paul 

i'll be writing you this letter Kansas City (dreaming) 

while i hope and pray you won't return at all 

there's no left turns in Jersey 

i don't care for San Jose 

and i'll probably go to Vegas in the fall 

head west to San Diego 

while New York is standing tall 

and i hope and pray you won't return at all 

when the sun comes up in Pasadena 

when the waves crash down in the Carolinas 

when i lose all hope in Colorado 

when the heart dies down in Arizona 

every song i sing i'll sing for you 

i'll call at 3am just like i always do 

every second every minute every hour of the day 

you're always on my mind
