Mississippi Water |
A painted lady sings a lullaby |
A raindrop falls from an empty sky |
A steamboat’s lying on a river bed |
The captain smiles and his eyes are red |
Mississippi water washing over me Mississippi water washing over me A lady’s riding bareback on a horse |
I know that Babylon must be her course |
An old man’s laughing at the dead of night |
But I don’t care if he is black or white |
Mississippi water washing over me Mississippi water washing over me The summer heat burns the skin on my face |
And the trees shimmer so in this quiet place |
A bird up high sings a song that I know |
And those sweet melodies fall down like snow |
A crowd of people watch an empty stage |
There’s no performers but still they stay |
Moonlight dances on a slide trombone |
The captain whistles as he wanders home |
Mississippi water washing over me Mississippi water washing over me Mississippi water washing over me Mississippi water washing over me Mississippi water |
Mississippi water |
Mississippi water washing over me Mississippi water washing over me Mississippi water washing over me |
