Lyrics
[Verse 1] I grew up in a little town named after another Catchin' bass and cuttin' grass was how I spent my summers I know it sounds cliché, but it's how I was raised And I got my first guitar from a pawn shop off of Poplar Picked up "Sweet Home Alabama" and "Smoke On The Water" And that's what got me out It's crazy thinkin' now [Chorus 1] I'm a mockingbird Singin' songs that sound like other songs you've heard Like Friday nights and headlights on some backroad red dirt And how Mississippi's home I've always been a mockingbird but now I'm a mockingbird with a microphone [Verse 2] I found myself a contract down on Sixteenth Avenue Writing songs for anyone about anything I knew And I've come a long long way But one thing hasn't changed [Chorus 1] I'm a mockingbird Singing songs that sound like other songs you've heard Like Friday nights and headlights on some backroad red dirt And how Mississippi's homе I've always been a mockingbird but now I'm a mockingbird with a microphone A mockingbird with a microphone Ooh, with a microphonе, with a microphone, with a microphone [Verse 3] Do this, do that That shirt, this hat Don't forget to smile Kiss the ring once in a while Don't say those words Put down your finger Throw in a slow love song or two Well, fuck that, and fuck you 'cause [Chorus 2] The way I sing may not be pretty May not be music to your ears But when these wings roll through your city My last name is all you hear And I refuse to be another Mockingbird with a microphone I'll fly the line I choose to, brother Even if that makes me the crow, the crow, the crow Even if that makes me the crow, the crow, the crow, the crow [Verse 4] Well, do that, do this Unclench your fist You're too loud, you're too proud, it won't work Well, tell that to twenty five thousand rednecks with my dumb face on their T-shirt [Chorus 2] The way I sing may not be pretty May not be music to your ears But when these wings roll through your city My last name is all you hear And I refuse to be another Mockingbird with a microphone I'll fly the line I choose to, brother Even if that makes me the crow, the crow, the crow Even if that makes me the crow, the crow, the crow, the crow [Chorus 1] I'm a mockingbird Singing songs that sound like other songs you've heard Like Friday nights and headlights on some backroad red dirt And how Mississippi's home I've always been a mockingbird but now I'm a mockingbird and I'm the crow
