This past semester, one of the vet students that My Jerry has helped muchly over her years at MSU presented him with a custom~made CD of blues, rock, and other cool songs that focus on Mississippi, Oktibbeha {county}, and Starkville. There are a few of Memphis thrown in there too. The vet~student also made on that featured more country than rock, and gave that to Jerry's boss.
One of the songs is by JJ Grey and MoFro. It's called "Mississippi". And it makes me glad that I live here.
Off the album "Country Ghetto":
Mississippi
Well I dearly love my home but
She never looked so good to me
Blue skies and dragonflies
Muddy creek
Lord set me free
Good things are going on
there in Mississippi
She made me feel good
there in Mississippi
Folks smiling and saying hey
In my car as I'm passing by
And I can smell those barbeque grills
firing on the fourth of July
Good things are going on
there in Mississippi
She made me feel good
there in Mississippi
Good things are going on
there in Mississippi
She made me feel good
there in Mississippi
Everybody moving
everybody grooving
everybody letting it all get loose
there in Mississippi
She never looked so good to me
Blue skies and dragonflies
Muddy creek
Lord set me free
Good things are going on
there in Mississippi
She made me feel good
there in Mississippi
Folks smiling and saying hey
In my car as I'm passing by
And I can smell those barbeque grills
firing on the fourth of July
Good things are going on
there in Mississippi
She made me feel good
there in Mississippi
Good things are going on
there in Mississippi
She made me feel good
there in Mississippi
Everybody moving
everybody grooving
everybody letting it all get loose
there in Mississippi
And you being mine is one of my best things going on in Mississippi! Love ya Baby!
