With friends around and even pals I know are true Still I'm lonely, homesick and blue There's no one who can cheer me when I'm all alone Longing for my Mississippi home
Way down in the delta on the Mississippi shore In that muddy water, I long to be once more Midnight shadows creep about and the whippoorwills call You can hear old mammy shout, "Come in here, you all"
Way down on the levee, strolling in the pale moon light You can see those steamboats and the fields of snowy white That's a feeling I can't lose, the muddy water in my shoes When I get that Mississippi Delta blues
