| In the morning
|
| It takes me quite a while to clear my head
|
| And as the day moves on
|
| I find it hard to smile at something said
|
| So I took control
|
| Priority number one, and that’s me
|
| Then I cut the dragons head off
|
| And put away my gun, so let it be
|
| So let be
|
| I’m dying (I'm dying) prematurely
|
| I’m wasting (I'm wasting) my life for sure
|
| I’m trying (I'm trying) to kill what’s happening to me
|
| A ghost along the Mississippi
|
| Never thought before
|
| How life could be so strange
|
| And I guess my one a day, became ten or twelve or more
|
| And more and more and more
|
| But I’ve got a gift
|
| It’s something called my friends or love
|
| With them and I combined I’ll beat an early end
|
| It’s been done before
|
| It’s been done before
|
| No timing (no timing) of passing away
|
| Of losing (of losing) just one more day
|
| I’m vying (I'm vying) to kill what’s wrong with me, yes I am
|
| A ghost along the Mississippi
|
| Can’t happen to me, can’t happen to me
|
| Won’t do it to me, won’t do it to me
|
| Can’t happen to me, can’t happen to me
|
| Won’t do it to me no, won’t do it to me no, oh no
|
| Can’t happen to me, can’t happen to me
|
| Won’t do it to me, won’t do it to me
|
| Can’t happen to me, can’t happen to me
|
| Won’t do it to me, won’t do it to me, won’t do it to me, oh no
|
| Let’s go
|
| Destroying
|
| What’s got hold of me
|
| No more a ghost of Mississippi |
