Mississippi Lyrics - Paula Cole

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 and Round and 

Red to white 

I'm pure and sad and silent 

I know I've got a 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 

Who can love my many selves 

The wife, the bitch, the rapunzel 

The one who cries 

And calls for you 

The one who is always alone 

I know I've got a 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 

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 

I know I've got a 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
