In New York City the streets are crowded
Clock is tickin' no doubt about it's frantic, uh huh
Bumper to bumper horns are blowin' cabbie's yellin'
Sirens are goin', it's panic... but
In a Mississippi minute
You can take your sweet time
In a Mississippi minute
You're never runnin' behind
It's like that muddy river movin' slow
Ain't no hurry it's how life goes
In a Mississippi minute
Pressure is on you don't want to blow it
They start the race before you know it you're in it, yeah yeah
Hustle and bustle no time to think
Life goes by so fast you blink you miss it... but
In a Mississippi minute
You can take your sweet time
In a Mississippi minute
You're never runnin' behind
Just like that muddy river movin' slow
Ain't no hurry it's how life goes
In a Mississippi minute
So baby pack your bags
Please tell me that you're comin' with me
Let me show you what I mean about a
Mississippi minute
You can take your sweet time
In a Mississippi minute
You're never runnin' behind
It's like that muddy river movin' slow
Ain't no worries that's how life goes
In a Mississippi minute
