Mississippi Delta
M, I, double S, I
Double S, I, double P, I
M, I, double S, I
Double S, I, double P, I
Right in the middle of the Cotton Belt
Down in the Mississippi Delta
Wearin' last year's possum belt
Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta
I had me a little red Johnny cake
And little bit of that apple pan dowdy
Pickin' them scuppernons drop back dab
Take a bite of corn to be howdy
Do him in with a scaly bark
One-ree-o-ree-hickory-john-fee-bay
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Do him in with a scaly bark
One-ree-o-ree-hickory-john-fee-bay
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
M, I, double S, I
Double S, I, double P, I
M, I, double S, I
Double S, I, double P, I
Right in the middle of the Cotton Belt
Down in the Mississippi Delta
Wearin' last year's possum belt
Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta
I had me a little red Johnny cake
And little bit of that apple pan dowdy
Pickin' them scuppernons drop back dab
Take a bite of corn to be howdy
Do him with a scaly bark
One-ree-o-ree-hickory-john-fee-bay
Double S, I, double P, I
M, I, double S, I
Double S, I, double P, I
Right in the middle of the Cotton Belt
Down in the Mississippi Delta
Wearin' last year's possum belt
Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta
I had me a little red Johnny cake
And little bit of that apple pan dowdy
Pickin' them scuppernons drop back dab
Take a bite of corn to be howdy
Do him in with a scaly bark
