Well it´s a long way from Star, Mississippi
To the big stage i´m singing on tonight
And sometimes the butterflies still get me
When I´m in the spotlight

And some people seem to think that I´ve changed
That I´m different than I was back then
But in my soul I know that I´m the same way
That I really always been

[Chorus]
Cause a Mississippi girl don´t change her ways
Just cause everybody knows her name
Ain´t big-headed from a little bit of fame
I still like wearing my old ball cap
Ride my kids around piggy back
They might know me all around the world
But y´all I´m still a Mississippi girl

Well I spent a few weeks in California
They put my face on the big movie screen
But that don´t mean I´ve forgotten where I came from
That´s just me chasing dreams, yeah

[Chorus]
Cause a Mississippi girl don´t change her ways
Just cause everybody knows her name
Ain´t big headed from a little bit of fame
I still like wearing my old ball cap
Ride my kids around piggy back
They might know me all around the world
But y´all I´m still a Mississippi girl

Cause a Mississippi girl don´t change her ways
Just cause everybody knows her name
Ain´t big headed from a little bit of fame
I still like wearing my old ball cap
Ride my kids around piggy back
They might know me all around the world
But y´all I´m still a Mississippi girl

Mississippi girl
oohh
Mississippi girl
Mississippi girl
yeah yeah
oo ohh

Mississippi girl.
