Down to Mississippi Songtext
von Sergeant Steel

Can′t you hear the wolf is howlin'
And the train hits the beat
Mosquitoes buzzing, thunder growling
Moonshine in the heat

Can′t you hear the guitars sliding
And a girl on her knees
Some are dancing, some are riding
The wild side waits for me

(Uh) the blue note surrounds me
(Oh yeah) it makes my mind free

We're going down, down, down
Down to Mississippi
We're going down, down, down
Where it all has just begun, yeah


Can′t you see the hips are shakin′
And some love is in the air
When you feel your pants are achin'
It′s time for a rocking chair

Can't you see the devil′s waiting
On the crossroad, sell your soul
When forty-nine and sixty-one are mating
Let it rock, let it roll

(Uh) the blue note surrounds me
(Oh yeah) it makes my mind free

We're going down, down, down
Down to Mississippi
We′re going down, down, down
Where it all has just begun, yeah

We're going down, down, down
Down to Mississippi
We're going down, down, down
Where it all has just begun, yeah, hey, yeah

We′re going down, down, down
Down to Mississippi
Down, down, down, down, down
