| Dixie
|
| moonlight, Swanee shore
|
| Headed homebound just once more
|
| To my Mississippi delta home
|
| Southland has that grand garden spot
|
| Although you believe or not
|
| I hear those breeze a-whispering:
|
| «Come on back to me»
|
| Muddy water 'round my feet
|
| Muddy water in the street
|
| Just God don’t shelter
|
| Down on the delta
|
| Muddy water in my shoes
|
| Reeling and rocking to them lowdown blues
|
| They live in ease and comfort down there
|
| I do declare
|
| Been away a year today
|
| To wander and roam
|
| I don’t care it’s muddy there
|
| But see it is my home
|
| Got my toes turned Dixie way
|
| 'Round the delta let me lay
|
| My heart cries out for muddy water |
