Saw an old friend last night I hadn't seen in a couple of years Stopped in Galatoire's had a couple of beers Talked about the price of oysters, the coach at LSU Then like I knew it would the conversation turned to you
He had to go and I looked at my watch, it was 1:45 I headed down canal, the quarter was coming alive A man on the corner told me that Jesus is coming soon But I was lost in the music and the crowd and the smell of cheap perfume
It's not good for a man to be alone But a women needs someone that she can count on And I walked down by the river in the cold gray dawn Love is like the Mississippi When she's gone she's gone
The line was long at Cafe Du Monde so I walked out on the pier Thought about all the winds and turns and mistakes that got me here Might as well try to change the course this old river takes Than to go back in time when you were mine, pretend it's not late
It's not good for a man to be alone But a women needs someone that she can count on And what I'd give to go back but the current's just too strong Love is like the Mississippi When she's gone she's gone
(Repeat 2nd chorus)
Yeah she's goneTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
