mississippi/密西西比-david nail
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/
that's a southern man's field of white/
i turned my back and walk away/
but lately i ain't see a sunny day/
been thinking 'bout rolling on back home/
back where i belong/
so won't you put me on that river boat queen/
let the side wheel spin/
'cause i ain't seen that muddy water town and i can't 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 river boat queen/
let the side wheel spin/
'cause i ain't seen that muddy water town and i can't 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/
