Mississippi Bottom Blues Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Way down in Mississippi where I was bred and born
I believe that will forever be my native home
(Verse 2)
My poor mothers old and her hair is turning gray
My poor mothers old and her hair is turning gray
I know it would break her heart if she found out I was barrelhousing this a-way
(Verse 3)
Im going where the water tastes like wine
Im going where the water tastes like wine
Where I can be drunk and staggering all the time
(Verse 4)
Ain't but the one thing and Lord, it worries my mind
Ain't but the one thing and Lord, it worries my mind
Well, theres a house full of women, Lord, ain't none of them mine
(Verse 5)
My baby passed me and she never said a word
My baby passed me and she never said a word
Nothing I had did but twas something she had heard
