[Verse 1]
Well, you can dig me up a grave
And try and stick me in the ground
Well, you can tie me to the bed
And try and beat me half to death
But you can never keep me down
Well, you can stick me in a hole
And you can pray all day for rain
You can shoot me in the leg
Just to try to make me beg
And you can leave me there for days
[Chorus]
And I'll stay alive
Just to follow you home, yeah
And I will survive
'Cause you're my Mississippi Princess, you're my California Queen
Like the Duchess of Detroit and every city in between
You can slap me in the face and you can scream profanity
Leave me here to die alone, but I'll still follow you home
I'll still follow you home
[Verse 2]
You can make a couple calls
And tell your brothers I'm in town
Put a bounty on my head
And tell my parents that I'm dead
And hope to hell I'm never found
You can steal me the keys
To your daddy's Cadillac
Well, you can tamper with the brakes
Call it a mistake
And pray I'm never coming back
[Chorus]
And I'll stay alive
Just to follow you home, yeah
And I will survive
'Cause you're my Mississippi Princess, you're my California Queen
Like the Duchess of Detroit and every city in between
You can slap me in the face and you can scream profanity
Leave me here to die alone, but I'll still follow you home
I'll still follow you home
[Bridge]
You can dig me up a grave
And try and stick me in the ground
You can tie me to the bed
And try and beat me half to death
But you can never keep me down
[Chorus]
And I will survive
Cause you're my Mississippi Princess, you're my California Queen
Like the Duchess of Detroit and every city in between
You can slap me in the face and you can scream profanity
Leave me here to die alone, but I'll still follow you home
I'll still follow you home (I'll still follow you home)
I'll still follow you home (I'll still follow you home)
I'll still follow you home (I'll still follow you home)
I'll still follow you home (I'll still follow you home)
I'll still follow you home
