Yes, you do. TN has no state income tax, so there is nothing to file for TN, but since you work and earn income in MS, you must file a non-resident tax return for MS.

Yes. Because you live in Mississippi, you will file a Resident MS tax return that includes all of your income for the year, including your earnings while working in Tennessee.

Here is an article from the Mississippi Department of Revenue that discusses who must file a MS tax return.
