[Verso 1]
With friends around and even pals that I know are true
Still I'm lonely homesick and blue
There's no one who can cheer me when I'm alone
Longing for my Mississippi home
[Coro]
Way down on the delta on that Mississippi shore
In that muddy water I long to be once more
When that shadows creep about and the whippoorwill call
You can hear old mommy shout come in here you all
[Verso 2]
Way down on the levee strolling in the pale moon light
You can see those steamboats and fields of snowy white
That's a feeling I can't lose muddy water in my shoes
When I get those Mississippi Delta blues
I long to hear them singing songs them old melodies
Swanee River and Old Black Joe
That sweet magnolia perfume floating on the breeze
Way down south is where I long to go
[Coro]
