 Rate Mississippi Halfstep
Artist : Grateful dead
Song : Mississippi halfstep
On the day when I was born daddy sat down and
cried.
I had the mark just as plain as day; which could
not be denied.
They say that cain caught abel rollin’ loaded
dice;
Ace of spades behind his ear and him not thinkin’
twice.
Halfstep, mississippi uptown toodeloo hello,
baby, I’m gone, good-bye
Half a cup of rock and rye. farewell to you old
southern skies
I’m on my way, on my way.
If all you got to live for is what you left
behind,
Get yourself a powder charge and seal that silver
mine.
Lost my boots in transit, baby, pile of smokin’
leather.
I nailed a retread to my feet and prayed for
better weather.
Halfstep, mississippi uptown toodeloo hello,
baby, I’m gone, good-bye
Half a cup of rock and rye. farewell to you old
southern skies
I’m on my way, on my way.
They say that when your ship comes in, the first
man takes the sails;
What’s the point of callin’ shots; this cue ain’t
straight in line.
Cue ball’s made of styrofoam and no one’s got the
time.
Halfstep, mississippi uptown toodeloo hello,
baby, I’m gone, good-bye
Half a cup of rock and rye. farewell to you old
southern skies
I’m on my way, on my way.
Across the rio grandeeo, across the lazy river.
