Mississippi mama, Missouri papa
Ahh, ahh
Oh my god, I just got a little drunk
Told my friends
That I think you might just be the one
Oh my god, maybe just a little much
I better slow down 'fore I end up passing out and
Oh my god, what is god to me these days?
I don't even know, maybe it's a passing phase
Oh my god, maybe more than I can take
Contemplating life and just the
Meaning of well everything
Everything
They say everything is nothing, nothing
But I'll take every day as something, something
Oh my god, I woke up a little hungover
From the bourbon and the Pepsi-Cola that I poured
Oh my god, maybe just a little more
I know that I'm working, but lately I've just been getting bored
Every day is something that I can't ignore
Brand new feelings showing up that I try to thwart
And it sucks, I'm not even 24 anymore
Maybe I should pray the lord
Saves me, baby, baby,
What was up with my Baptist upbringing?
Mississippi mama, Missouri papa
They teach you how to love within
The confines of a doctrine and
Oh my god, what's it mean anymore?
Pop culture told me that I shouldn't pray no more
Unless it's for something I really adore
Like a hundred million dollars or the end of war
Save me, baby, baby,
What was up with my Baptist upbringing?
Mississippi mama, Missouri papa
They teach you how to love within
The confines of a doctrine and
Oh my god, oh my god
Means something different these days
