Mississippi Delta Blues

With friends around and even pals that I know are true

Still I'm lonely homesick and blue

There's no one who can cheer me when I'm alone

Longing for my Mississippi homeWay down on the delta on that Mississippi shore

In that muddy water, I long to be once more

When that shadows creep about and the whippoorwill call

You can hear old mommy shout, "Come in here, you all"Way down on the levee, strolling in the pale moon light

You can see those steamboats and fields of snowy white

That's a feeling, I can't lose muddy water in my shoes

When I get those Mississippi Delta blues

(Yodel)I long to hear them singing songs, them old melodies

Swanee River and Ol' Black Joe

That sweet magnolia perfume floating on the breeze

Way down south is where I long to go

Hey, way down on the delta

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
