Mississippi Kisses Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
You, oh you
Came out here to see the big easy
But you're going home tomorrow

[Chorus]
Pigtail sweet and with the southern charm yellow bow
Stole my heart
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans

[Bridge]
I may never see you again
But I will remember your love forever

[Chorus]
Pigtail sweet and with the southern charm yellow bow
Stole my heart
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans

[Outro]
I'll never forget you, my babe
Oh darlin', sweet honey
I'll never forget you, my babe
Oh darlin', sweet honey
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans

[Verse 1]
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
You, oh you
Came out here to see the big easy
But you're going home tomorrow

[Chorus]
Pigtail sweet and with the southern charm yellow bow
Stole my heart
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans

[Bridge]
I may never see you again
But I will remember your love forever

[Chorus]
Pigtail sweet and with the southern charm yellow bow
Stole my heart
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans

[Outro]
I'll never forget you, my babe
Oh darlin', sweet honey
I'll never forget you, my babe
Oh darlin', sweet honey
Hey, little girl
You know you stole my heart back there
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans
I had your Mississippi kisses down at New Orleans

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
