DAVID NAIL LYRICS - Missouri

"Missouri"



November's almost over, gentle winter's on the way

Still I sit here on this balcony, smoke my brain away



Waiting on that phone to ring

Wondering which day that it will be



Oh 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 Missouri



Oh, you were just a young girl and I swore I could change

Everyday that you forgive me, is just another one you'll waste



You came here in search of something true

Looks like, girl, your searching isn't through



Oh 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 Missouri



It's hard to think that everything around her

To know that won't be happy ever after



Oh 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 Missouri



Oh 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 Missouri



Here in Missouri, Missouri, Missouri
