Songwriters: Shoenfeld, Adam; Rich, John;Well it's a long way from Star, Mississippi  To the big stage I'm singin' on tonight  And sometimes the butterflies still get me  When I'm in the spotlight    And some people seem to think that I've changed  That I'm different than I was back then  But in my soul I know that I'm the same way  That I've really always been    ?Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways  Just ?cause everybody knows her name  Ain't bigheaded from a little bit of fame    I still like wearin' my old ball cap  Ridin' my kids around piggy back  They might know me all around the world  But y'all I'm still a Mississippi girl    Well I spent a few weeks in California  They put my face on the big movie screen  But that don't mean I've forgotten where I came from  That's just me chasin' dreams, yeah    ?Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways  Just ?cause everybody knows her name  Ain't bigheaded from a little bit of fame    I still like wearin' my old ball cap  Ridin' my kids around piggy back  They might know me all around the world  But y'all I'm still a Mississippi girl    ?Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways  Just ?cause everybody knows her name  Ain't bigheaded from a little bit of fame    I still like wearin' my old ball cap  Ridin' my kids around piggy back  They might know me all around this world  But y'all I'm still a Mississippi girl    Mississippi girl  Mississippi girl, Mississippi girl  Mississippi girl      © WB MUSIC CORP.;    these lyrics are last corrected by josee
