Mississippi - Paula Cole

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 and Round and 
Red to white 
I'm pure and sad and silent 

CHORUS: 

I know 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 a cloud 
The dog in you 
Spit me out into the mississippi 

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

Chorus 

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 

Chorus
