Al Bowlly & The Ray Noble Orchestra - Big Bands of the 30's

I Can't Get Mississippi off My Mind

Trouble on my hands
You, I did wrong
Speaking of the lands
Where I don't belong
No matter where I go
This heart just seems to know
I can't get Mississippi off my mind

Tired are these eyes
Long since they've seen
Purple tinted skies and patches of green
No matter where I go
This heart just seems to know
I can't get Mississippi off my mind

As a tot I got a lot of happiness
Waving at a passing train
Never dreamt that all it meant was loneliness
Don't these tears of mine explain

Weary all the day
No peace, or rest
Traveling far away
From those I love best

No matter where I go
This heart just seems to know
I can't get Mississippi off my mind
