[Intro]
We should love one another, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 1]
You best not be jokin'
You better be strokin' comin' down to Mississippi 'cause
They don't allow no strippin' down in far east Mississippi, no, no, no
Hang on
[Bridge]
Far east Mississippi
Far east Mississippi
[Instrumental]
[Interlude]
We ought to love one another
Like sisters and brothers, yeah
Guilty of lovin' a woman
[Verse 2]
They don't allow no bad lipping, no skinny dipping
In far east Mississippi, child, no
They don't allow no honey
No tailducking in far east Mississippi, far east Mississippi, child
[Instrumental]
[Refrain]
Far east, far east Mississippi
Far east Mississippi, child, uh
Far east Mississippi
Far east Mississippi
[Verse 3]
They don't stand for no jivin'
No connivin' in far east Mississippi, no, huh
You best not be lying, be denying
Coming from Mississippi, child
[Outro]
Far east Mississippi
Far east Mississippi
Just wanna be free, ooh, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
Wanna be free
