Missouri Lyrics

November's almost over, gentle winter's on the way
Still I sit here on this balcony, smoke my brain awayWaiting on that phone to ring
Wondering which day that it will beOh Carrie, I pray one day you'll go back home
To the warmth of Southern Georgia where you belong
And leave all the pain you've felt from me here in MissouriOh, you were just a young girl and I swore I could change
Everyday that you forgive me, is just another one you'll wasteYou came here in search of something true
Looks like, girl, your searching isn't throughOh Carrie, I pray one day you'll go back home
To the warmth of Southern Georgia where you belong
And leave all the pain you've felt from me here in MissouriIt's hard to think that everything around her
To know that won't be happy ever afterOh Carrie, I pray one day you'll go back home
To the warmth of Southern Georgia where you belong
Leave all the pain you've felt from me here in MissouriOh Carrie, I pray one day you'll go back home
To the warmth of Southern Georgia where you belong
And leave all the pain you've felt from me here in MissouriHere in Missouri, Missouri, Missouri
