Paula Cole - Mississippi lyrics

I know I'm big and proud all over
Not just on the stage
My secret self has many sides
That laugh and crush and sting
I'm red and thick like fire
I like it from behind
Round to back, red to white
I'm pure inside and silent

I've got a piece of my heart
On the sole of your shoe
I've got a little bit of thunder
Trapped inside of that cloud that dog in you
Spit me out into the Mississippi

I'm gonna know who can love my many selves
The wife, the bitch, the Rapunzel
The one who cries and calls for you
The one who is always alone

I've got a piece of my heart
On the sole of your shoe
I've got a little bit of thunder
Trapped inside of that cloud that dog in you
Spit me out into the Mississippi

Oh, Mississippi, come and wash my pain away
Oh, Mississippi, come and take my pain away
I feel I'm drowning, I feel I'm drowning
I feel I'm, I feel I'm dying

I've got a piece of my heart
On the sole of your shoe
I've got a little bit of thunder
Trapped inside of that cloud

I've got a piece of my heart
On the sole of your shoe
I've got a little bit of thunder
Trapped inside of that cloud

I've got a piece of my heart
On the sole of your shoe
I've got a little bit of thunder
Trapped inside of that cloud

That dog in you
Spit me out into the Mississippi
