Mississippi by David Nail
Mississippi lyrics
I ain�t never seen the snowfall on the Delta
Like the one that�s gonna cover all of New York tonight
But it sure do remind me of those miles and miles of cotton
Long ago but not forgotten, yeah, that�s a southern man�s field of white
Yeah, I turned my back and walked away
But lately I ain�t seen a sunny day
Been thinking �bout rolling on back home
Back where I belong
So won�t you put me on that riverboat Queen
Let the side wheels spin
�Cause I ain�t seen that muddy water town in I cant remember when
All these years they played a trick on me
No, I ain�t the man I used to be
Tonight I feel like Mississippi
People round here, Lord they move in such a pace
I�m just another face, lost in the crowd
There�s a sweet sound being sung down in Dixie
Now and again it gets me when I get to feeling down
Yeah, I turned my back and walked away
But lately I ain�t seen a sunny day
Been thinking �bout rolling on back home
Back where I belong
So won�t you put me on that riverboat Queen
Let the side wheels spin
�Cause I ain�t seen that muddy water town in I cant remember when
All these years they played a trick on me
No, I ain�t the man I used to be
Tonight I feel like Mississippi
All these years they played a trick on me
No, I ain�t the man I used to be
Tonight I feel like Mississippi
Tonight I feel like Mississippi
