Mississippi Blues — текст песни (Mark Knopfler)

Goin down to the delta

Where I can have my fun

Goin down to the delta

Where I can have my fun

Where I can drink my white lightnin, gamble

I can bring my baby home



Dont the delta look lonesome

When that evening sun go down?

Dont this delta look lonesome

When that evenin sun goes down

Well, you been lookin for your baby

Dont know where she could be found



Goin back to my use-to-be

Although that she have done me wrong

Goin back to my use-to-be

Although that she have done me wrong

Well, I think Ill have to forgive her

cause Im tired o driftin through this world alone



She treats me dirty

But I love her just the same

Well, she treats me dirty

But I love her just the same

Well, it just breaks my heart to hear

Lord, some other men call her name



Now goodbye, Im gon leave you

An I wont be back no more



Now goodbye, Im gon leave you

An I wont be back no mo

Man, my mind gets to ramblin

See you in nineteen and forty-fo
