Don’t Mississippi

You don't have to pace yourself

It's probably better if you don't

There's plenty up on that shelf

To take you anywhere you want

She done left you, she done wrecked you

And she ain't comin' back

Before you refill it, be sure you kill it

There's still a little in that glass

So don't Mississippi, don't waste a drink

Turn on the tipsy if you don't wanna think

'Bout how she been, where she is, why she gotta be like this

What she doin' and who she been doin' it with

Just tip the whole bottle all the way back

A gallon of tears ain't worth an ounce of Jack

You ain't gotta stop, just drown in the whiskey

You'll need every drop, don't Mississippi

Someday, you're gonna be alright

You won't even miss her at all

But that ain't gonna be tonight

So work your way down that wall

It's a bad night, look at the bright side

It can't get any worse

You might die from a broken heart

But you ain't gonna die of thirst

So don't Mississippi, don't waste a drink

Turn on the tipsy if you don't wanna think

'Bout how she been, where she is, why she gotta be like this

What she doin' and who she been doin' it with

Just tip the whole bottle all the way back

A gallon of tears ain't worth an ounce of Jack

You ain't gotta stop, just drown in the whiskey

You'll need every drop, don't Mississippi

Not one single 'Sippi

She done left you, she done wrecked you

And she ain't comin' back

Before you refill it, be sure you kill it

There's still a little in that glass

So don't Mississippi, don't waste a drink

Turn on the tipsy if you don't wanna think

'Bout how she been, where she is, why she gotta be like this

What she doin' and who she been doin' it with

Just tip the whole bottle all the way back

A gallon of tears ain't worth an ounce of Jack

You ain't gotta stop, just drown in the whiskey

You'll need every drop, don't Mississippi
