Snowed this mornin' That kind of cold Where your car won't start And your heart won't go The headwaters up here will freeze your bones But they say I can float this river home It's that long The Mississippi river runs so wide The biggest tear God ever cried Right now it feels like the great divide And Lord I want to be on the other side And Lord I want to be on the other side Where that icy water turns to mud And tastes dirty like it always should Wehre they talk lazy And they walk slow And there's gospel in the radio That's where I want to go 50 miles til I get home But when you're this close miles go twice as long When I cross over I'm going to get down Gonna close my eyes and kiss the ground
