"Mississippi... Feels Like Coming Home"
lyrics and music by Raphael Semmes

Have you ever been kissed by a warm gulf Breeze?
Sipped ice tea beneath Magnolia trees?
Or sat on the porch and just talked a while?
Then I know a place that will make you Smile.

Have you ever had the Blues inside of you?
Gone down to the delta, let them play for you?
Seen the Mississippi rolling deep and proud?
Or hit the jackpot and laughed out loud?

From the hills down to the Delta, Jackson's skyline
to the Pines, there's a place I know, so come on.
Mississippi. Feels like coming home.

She can tell you stories, she can sing you Songs.
Feed you like your Mama, and walk you home.
Show you sights like you've never known.

MISSISSIPPI. FEELS LIKE COMING HOME
