lyrics

I went down to Mississippi
I said hey girl, won't you kiss me?
I'm just going down for a long ride

But as I made my way around
I started worrying about
How I will never see you again

I will be gone for a while
Hey Hey Hey
But there's a chance I may never come back
Hey Hey Hey
I don't know if I made it clear
When I told you that I wouldn't be here
I'm really just leavin' it all behind

I went down to Tennessee
I was thinking about you and me
I hope that you won't miss me while I'm gone

But then when I gave it much thought
My stories were better left unsought
Said it's better that you don't know what I have done

I will be gone for a while
Hey Hey Hey
But there's a chance I may never come back
Hey Hey Hey
I don't know if I made it clear
When I told you that I wouldn't be here
I'm really just leavin' it all behind

I will be gone for a while
Hey Hey Hey
But there's a chance I may never come back
Hey Hey Hey
I don't know if I made it clear
When I told you that I wouldn't be here
I'm really just leavin' it all behind
