Four Seconds |
| Goes to show |
| It’s not what you know |
| (But) who you know |
| So’s, you know |
| I can go with the flow |
| Build my note |
| Then throw to snow |
| Before the show |
| Stay low |
| Play it on a Dobro |
| Oh, I tiptoe to and fro |
| From Ontario |
| My stereo’s blue like the rodeo |
| Growing like a freak show free throw |
| It’s just the intro |
| Keep dropping like dominoes |
| One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi, four |
| Now rewind |
| What’d you have in mind? |
| Could we unwind? |
| I’m fine |
| We can find a streamline |
| Recombine — intertwine |
| If I’m gonna headline |
| Tryin' to be moving all the behinds |
| Line to line |
| Try to shine |
| Redesigned — redefined |
| Keeping up the spellbind |
| Gotta make it worth the grind |
| Just in time to have another close encounter of the third kind |
| One Mississippi, two Mississippi, three Mississippi, four |
| I’ve been away four years and a day |
| You’d be thinking I’d be lonely |
| But I’m out here to stay |
| Wouldn’t have it any other way |
| Oh flip, the light is turning orange |
| Coat ripped when I caught it in the door hinge |
| I slip when the lady in the four-inch |
| Bought it in a store in Germany |
| You wore it like a makeshift snowdrift |
| Had to get a gift |
| Saw the red shift rift |
| Gretta got an eyelift |
| Oh sure, that one’s obscure |
| Maybe piss-poor, but I had to take a little detour |
| I’ve been away four years and a day |
| You’d be thinking I’d be lonely |
| But I’m out here to stay |
| Wouldn’t have it any other way |
| One Mississippi |
| Two Mississippi |
| Three Mississippi |
| Four |
