Maybe Mississippi
Traveling the country for a while
Traveling the country for a while
Papa he needs a little time
And my mama can’t help her crying
Don’t know why I’m feeling bad
Don’t know why I’m feeling bad
It’s the worst feeling I’ve ever had
As the miles go by so fast
Seen it all and it all looks pretty
From Kokomo all the way to Kansas City
In Jackson there’s a real nice lady
And she said she’ll be my Mississippi lets me
Oh maybe Mississippi
She’s the third stone from the sun of fire
Where the weather’s gone bad the water’s is too high
Villain on the loose and he lost his mind
Too amazed to know why
The queen she did her tricks for you
And disaster saved room for two
Wide blue ring of desert and sky
The ocean underneath my eyes
Working on a slow and steady rise
Working on a slow and steady rise
Gonna meet my maker in the sky
But my blues will never ever die
Well I seen ‘em all and they all look shitty
Without my lil’ darlin’ Mississippi
She’s tied down in Jackson now
Forever is way too long
