Mississippi Girl

"Mississippi Girl" is a song by the American country music recording artist Faith Hill, taken from her sixth studio album Fireflies (2005).

It was positively commended by music critics, although some noted the similarity between the track and singer Jennifer Lopez's hit song "Jenny from the Block" (2002) in regards of the messaging.

It topped the US Hot Country Songs chart for two consecutive weeks, becoming Hill's ninth and final number one single to date, and her first since "The Way You Love Me" (2000).

[3] The song lyrically sings about Hill claiming she has not forgotten her roots after becoming famous; the track also includes a reference to her role in the 2004 film The Stepford Wives.

[8] Slant Magazine said the song had the "stench of desperation" about it, with "southern-fried production [meant to] ape shamelessly the things that the women who supplanted her at the top of Nashville's pecking order have been doing.

It then shows her diving from a wooden bridge in the dress which then switches to Hill and her band performing the song in a concert (filmed in July 2005 at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky).

"Mississippi Girl" interrupted the six-week reign of Toby Keith 's " As Good as I Once Was " at number one.
