Mississippi Pride Testo

I was born down on 43 south
Corn bread and catfish tasted good in my mouth
And I can’t hide
My Mississippi pride

Had me down pants with holes in the knees
Magnolia blossoms on a sweet summer breeze
And I can’t hide
My Mississippi pride
Mama would call right at nightfall
You kids all come inside
If yall mess around until sundown
I’ll be all over your back side

We thought she was so strict back then
I’d give anything to hear her again
I can’t hide
My Mississippi pride

I’ve known some sad times, some hard and bad times
Sometimes I just don’t forget
But there ain’t no pain, no winter no rain
My Mississippi pride ain’t help me through yet

From the hills in the north, down to the gulf tides
I hear the music that can’t be denied
And I can’t hide
My Mississippi pride
Make me who I am
I can’t hide
My Mississippi pride
