Right in the middle of the cotton belt
|
Down in the Mississippi Delta
|
Wearin' last years possum belt
|
Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta
|
|
Have me a little that Johnny cake
|
A little bit of that apple pan dowdy
|
Pickin them scuppernon's off that vine
|
Chigger bite, it's goin' to beat howdy
|
|
Ate me a bucket of Muscadine
|
Sit on the riverbank after dark
|
Drop my line down a crawdad hole
|
Do him in with a scaly bark

Down in the Mississippi Delta

Wearin last years possum belt

Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta
|
|
Sittin and scratchin' mosquito bites
|
Old fox done give him the slip
|
Watchin' the mornin' glories grow
|
In Biloxi on an overnight trip
|
|
I bet five dollars to win two bits
|
Eat a peppermint stick on Sunday
|
Ain't no use in'a hurrying up
|
Can't leave till a week from Monday
