Song : Mississippi Water
A painted lady sings a lullabye.
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 her 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.
