Somewhere out in Texas, somewhere west of Abilene
Empty bottles, Copenhagen cans and pumpkin seeds
Highway lines and stars at night as far as you could see
Every stop we're trading off so we don't fall asleep

Whoa, we start talking 'bout the things we're missing
Oh, yeah we can both agree

That sometimes it's Alabama, good friends and family
Sometimes it's chasing country songs up there in Tennessee
Sometimes it's a mix of everything
But it's mostly just a girl from Mississippi

There's a feeling that you can't explain, your name on the marquee sign
The looks on all the faces when the song is hittin' just right
Every night at closing time there's something on our mind

Sometimes it's Alabama, good friends and family
Sometimes it's chasing country songs up there in Tennessee
Sometimes it's a mix of everything
But it's mostly just a girl from Mississippi

Whoa, living out the words we're singing
Whoa, yeah and it don't change a thing

Sometimes it's Alabama, good friends and family
Sometimes it's chasing country songs up there in Tennessee
Sometimes it's a mix of everything
But it's mostly just a girl from Mississippi
Oh a girl from Mississippi
