Mississippi
61 outta Memphis
80 miles to the Southland
Head down East Tallahatchie
On our way to the Dockery
Down, I'm goin down... into Mississippi
Roll on up to the old mill
Shotgun shack what they give ya
Make your way with your two hands
Work all day on ya own land
Down, I'm goin down, ...into Mississippi
On these trails, where we roam
Where we lay we call our home
Delta sun on the tin roof
Whiskey stains on the floorboards
Got two harps and a guitar
And we don't have to go far
Down, I'm goin down... into Mississippi
Hit the stage after sundown
See the sweat pourin off me
What y'all want us to play you?
Want that hard rockin old blues
Down, I'm goin down... into Mississippi
On these trails, where we roam
Where we lie we call our home
Down, I'm goin down, Mississippi
Down, I'm goin down, into Mississippi
80 miles to the Southland
Head down East Tallahatchie
On our way to the Dockery
Down, I'm goin down... into Mississippi
Roll on up to the old mill
Shotgun shack what they give ya
Make your way with your two hands
Work all day on ya own land
Down, I'm goin down, ...into Mississippi
On these trails, where we roam
Where we lay we call our home
Delta sun on the tin roof
Whiskey stains on the floorboards
Got two harps and a guitar
And we don't have to go far
Down, I'm goin down... into Mississippi
Hit the stage after sundown
See the sweat pourin off me
What y'all want us to play you?
Want that hard rockin old blues
Down, I'm goin down... into Mississippi
On these trails, where we roam
Where we lie we call our home
Down, I'm goin down, Mississippi
Down, I'm goin down, into Mississippi
