Missouri

In the midwest corner
Of an American dream
That's been way long gone
It was golden for the summer
But the winter turned it mean
And that's been way long gone

At a faraway diner
They asked me what I've found
I said too much, my friend
I grew up a little bit wiser
In a stranger kinda town
And I won't go back again

Misery was all I found
Misery was all I found
And it's hard to get your feet up off ground
When your hometown misery is bringin you down
When your hometown misery is bringin you down

For you I did suffer
I did gladly bleed
But that's been way long gone
In your darkest hour
You know you had a friend in me
But that's been way long gone

Now I'm headed for the border
On a Mighty Mississippi Queen
Chuggin along my friend
Cause I can't stand no longer
The way you been treatin me
I won't be back again

Misery was all I found
Misery was all I found
And it's hard to get your feet up off ground
When your hometown misery is bringin you down
When your hometown misery is bringin you down

Misery was all I found
Misery was all I found
And it's hard to get your feet up off ground
When your hometown misery is bringin you down
When your hometown misery is bringin you down

Bringin you down
Bringin you down
Bringin you down
Always bringing you
So low down
Always bringing you
So low down
