Ghosts Of Mississippi |
| Late one night behind corn whiskey |
| I fell asleep with a guitar in my hand |
| I dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi |
| And the blues came walking like a man |
| Without a word I passed that guitar over |
| He tuned it up like I’d never seen |
| A crooked smile was his expression |
| Then he closed his eyes and began to sing |
| Oh Lord why have you forsaken me |
| Got me down in Mississippi |
| Where I don’t want to be |
| Oh Lord why have you forsaken me |
| Got me down in Mississippi |
| Where I don’t want to be |
| When I woke up I looked into the mirror |
| I saw no reflection for a while |
| But as my eyes came into focus |
| I recognized that crooked smile |
| Oh Lord why have you forsaken me |
| Got me down in Mississippi |
| Where I don’t want to be |
| Oh Lord why have you forsaken me |
| Got me down in Mississippi |
| Where I don’t want to be |
| Late one night behind corn whiskey |
| I fell asleep with a guitar in my hand |
| I dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi |
| And the blues came walking like a man |
| Oh Lord why have you forsaken me |
| Got me down in Mississippi |
| Where I don’t want to be |
| Oh Lord why have you forsaken me |
| Got me down in Mississippi |
| Where I don’t want to be |
