Lace and pearls, tears and curls
Mama left her baby girl
Headed for a hotel room
With a man she barely knew
Well the baby's cryin'
Ain't is a shame?
Hurt so bad she'll change her name
Toss and turn in your big house
Head away from the south
Pre-Chorus:
Disappear in Alabama
Daddy's in Mississippi
Callin' out to Mobile
Mama don't ya miss me
Chorus:
Drop the Hammer
Who gets me
Flames are high in Mississippi
Drop the Hammer
Who gets me
Flames are high in Mississippi
Verse 2:
A thousand miles away
Mama likes to play
Expands her mind by night
Homemaker by day
Well the rich men never see her coming
Fallin' for her emerald skies
Gone before they see her runnin'
Payin' for her cocaine lies
(Repeat Pre-chorus and Chorus)
Verse 3:
There's a white Beamer
Couldn't be cleaner
Mud in the backseat
New life's growing
She ain't showing
Broken mind and dirty feet
Fuel where daddy lay
Fire in the hallway
Jumping out the window seal
She ain't mean
It's all a dream
They must've lost her pills
(Repeat pre-chorus and chorus)
Drop the Hammer
Who gets me
Flames are high in Mississippi
Drop the Hammer
Who gets me
Flames are high in Mississippi
Flames are high in Mississippi!
