By The Dawn's Early Light Testo

Well, the latter sounds better, so I pack up my feather
And I lean down and kiss you one time
I'm gonna miss you, but I'll be in Mississippi
By the dawn's early light
Hey, by the dawn's early light I'll be in Mississippi
Then you won't have to worry about it
And I'll be one more loner on the road of life
With his thumb out one more time
Aw, I hate to be going but I gave you fair warning
That I wasn't fit to be tied
I'm gonna miss you but I'll be in Mississippi
By the dawn's early light
Well, you're lying there sleeping like a soft warm baby
And I want to touch your skin
But I know darn well if I crawl back in bed
You'll be changing my mind again
So while your eyes are all closed and your heart don't know
I'll be doing what I think is right
I'm gonna miss you but I'll be in Mississippi
By the dawn's early light
