Missouri City
In a town just south of Houston
Not too far from Sugar Land
She covered me up with kisses
When I put that ring on her hand
But somehow her love has faded
Like words painted on the ground
We tried to talk about it
But it’s a show me kind of town
Chorus:
It’s raining hard in Missouri City
My tears keep on falling down
She still says she loves me
But it’s a show me kind of town
My loving arms can still hold her
But I have to hold on tight
All the things that once felt so good
Lately they just don’t feel right
If I could I’d surely change things
Back to how they used to be
I still care a lot for her
But she has lost her spark for me
Bridge:
Oh Misery City
That’s the place I dwell
So sad, wet and pretty
I know these streets so well
Chorus:
It’s raining hard in Missouri City
My tears keep on falling down
She still says she loves me
But it’s a show me kind of town
