The Boy from Southern Mississippi

Now listen boy from Southern Mississippi
'Cause it took so long to find you in the city
I went through so many heartbreaks just to get you my way
So all I’m gonna ask is if you please wanna stay
Now I don’t kiss and tell, but I just wanna yell
'Cause in the past 18 years I’ve been stuck in hell
So won’t you tell me now, where were you for so long?
I had to go through 20 douches before writing you a song
All I needed was a southern gentleman
And not a greedy love thief with an evil plan
And what you gave me were a thousand kisses blown
So let me k-k-k-k-kiss you 'cause I got you for my own
Got you for my own, yeah
Now listen boy from Southern Mississippi
'Cause it took so long to find you in the city
I went through so many heartbreaks just to get you my way
So all I’m gonna ask is if you please wanna stay
So take me with you aboard a steamboat
You got that old school swagger, like a tailcoat
You slick your hair back in pretty copper curls
And your eyes shine in blue like gorgeous little mother pearls
And all I needed was a southern gentleman
And not a greedy love thief with an evil plan
And what you gave me were a thousand kisses blown
So let me kiss-kiss-kiss you 'cause I got you for my own
Got you for my own, yeah
Now listen boy from Southern Mississippi
'Cause it took so long to find you in the city
I went through so many heartbreaks just to get you my way
So all I’m gonna ask is if you please wanna stay
Got you for my own, yeah
Now listen boy from Southern Mississippi
'Cause it took so long to find you in the city
I went through so many heartbreaks just to get you my way
So all I’m gonna ask is if you please wanna stay.
