Way Down In Mississippi

(앨범: Mississippi - 2023)

Way down in Mississippi I've got the music in my bones
I'll take you there if you want to go with me
I'm gonna go back home
I'm gonna go back home

Mama and daddy always had something going
Whether we was home or driving around
The very first thing that I remember
Is singing along to that country sound

Way down in Mississippi I've got the music in my bones
I'll take you there if you want to go with me
I'm gonna go back home
I'm gonna go back home

We went to church with jumping and a shouting
Singing hallelujah and clapping hands
I joined in with that choir singing
One day we're gonna join that angel band

Way down in Mississippi I've got the music in my bones
I'll take you there if you want to go with me
I'm gonna go back home
I'm gonna go back home

Tuesday nights we'd all get together
Singing Ralph Stanley and Bill Monroe
I still love that bluegrass picking
I learned to sing high lonesome way down low

Way down in Mississippi I've got the music in my bones
I'll take you there if you want to go with me
I'm gonna go back home
I'm gonna go back home

I grew up and I started playing
And it ain't Mississippi without the blues
Everything changed on that old front porch
With JC Cannon taught me that groove

Way down in Mississippi I've got the music in my bones
I'll take you there if you want to go with me
I'm gonna go back home
I'm gonna go back home

After a while I made my way to Texas
I learned how the poets did it their own way
But I wouldn't be here making this music
If it weren't for the sound of my younger days

Way down in Mississippi I've got the music in my bones
I'll take you there if you want to go with me
I'm gonna go back home
I'm gonna go back home
