Mississippi
I went down to the river, was gonna dream a higher land.
I went down to the river, a pair of sticks in my hand.
I saw an old man smoking on a pipe, yeah, he was eating from a can of sardines,
he said with a yellow grin, Mississippi was the lowest down place he'd ever been.
I can't remember the name of that book I read,
been such a long time since Woodie Guthrie, he died in his bed.
Yeah, you know that old muddy river boy, it leads to nothing but sin,
whores, gamblers, drunkards, just go ask old Huckleberry Finn.
That old man got up, coughed twice, he spit, and he headed for the trees,
said don't say nothing to nobody son because you know they're going to come looking for me.
I can't remember the name of that book I read,
been such a long time since Woodie Guthrie, he died in his bed.
Midnight, Bourbon Street, the priest is leading the Mardi Gas procession,
he got the ashes of Abraham Lincoln for the ghost theatre,
time for the confession.

Yeah, you know that president, he got himself a brand new chicken moon,
it's hanging in a golden frame on the wall in his sister's bedroom,
warships gather like storm clouds in the back of his one track mind,
yeah, but Mr. President, that old muddy river's just waiting, just abiding it's time.
I can't remember the name of that book I read,
been such a long time since Woodie Guthrie died in his bed.
Midnight, Bourbon Street, the priest is leading the Mardi Gas procession,
he got the ashes of Abraham Lincoln for the ghost theatre,
time for the confession.
With a yellow grin he said Mississippi was the lowest down place he'd ever been,
with a yellow grin he said Mississippi was the lowest down place he'd ever been,
with a yellow grin he said Mississippi was the lowest down place he'd ever been.
