Down In Mississippi Lyrics
Down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi where I was born
Down in Mississippi where I come from
Way down
As far back as I can remember
I either had to plow or hoe
One of them long ol’ nine feet sacks
Standin’ at the old turn row
Down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi where I was born
Down in Mississippi where I come from
Way down
Nothin' I got against Mississippi
It also was the home of my wife
But I feel just like a lucky man
To get away with my life
Down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi where I was born
Down in Mississippi where I come from
Way down
They had a huntin’ season on the rabbit
If you shoot him you went to jail
The season was always open on me
Nobody need no bail
Down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi where I was born
Down in Mississippi where I come from
Way down
Way down
