Misouri Breaks

Missouri Breaks                   m.a.mcvicker 2002

The wind blew hard against my face.
Your love lifted, without a trace.
I stood long upon that hill.                                                                         
Praying I could, find the will.                                                                               
I never thought, I'd be left alone out here.
Wandering so far, to find someone dear.

When Missouri breaks, it's all you can do
to hold her hand and ride it through.
She'll kick and thrash,
she'll bite and chew.
Just hold her hand and ride it through.

Missouri doesn't like it
when the sun shines through.
You can't make her happy
or pleased with you.

You can hold her, and bless her;                                                                       
calm her, if you can.
But when it's all over,                                                                                   
She'll drop you, where you stand.

Be warned, my friend, when you find her out there.
It's best to have a plan.
When Missouri breaks down                                                                                 
on the love you bear.
She'll drop you, where you stand.
