| Sally’s up in Mississippi tonight
|
| With a man she hardly knows
|
| Sally’s wearin' brand new clothes
|
| Opportunity don’t knock twice
|
| So sally said, «Bye, bye»
|
| I hope she is alright
|
| Up in Mississippi tonight
|
| Sally left before the sun could rise
|
| When the city man came to town
|
| She turned his head around
|
| It was love with just one look
|
| When she saw the size of his pocketbook
|
| Oh Sally’s doin' fine
|
| She’s up in Mississippi tonight
|
| But there’s a mountain boy who’s gonna remember you
|
| And Sally you’re one old girl he hates to lose
|
| But you did what you had to do
|
| You know I’m happy for you
|
| But sometimes please think of me up there in Biloxi
|
| Sally’s up in Mississippi tonight
|
| Stayin' in a big hotel
|
| Rich man payin' the bill
|
| Drivin' a brand new car
|
| Drinkin' in fancy bars
|
| Oh Sally’s havin' a time
|
| She’s up in Mississippi tonight
|
| Sally’s up in Mississippi tonight
|
| Sally’s up in Mississippi tonight
|
| Sally’s up in Mississippi tonight |
