Mississippi King

Lyrics

Float into the flame like a river boat gypsy
 Gather 'round the river 'cause I'm gonna set you all free
 Do what I'll say and you'll have all the power
 Make the suckers dance and charge 'em by the hour
 Stoppin' the clocks when you do that thing
 So you're gonna shake for the Mississippi king
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send for your medicine
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send for your medicine
 ♪
 You were the queen of a second horse town
 All of his buddies can't be rodeo clowns
 Line 'em with sugar 'til the river runs bone dry
 Servin' up the fantasies, unlimited supply
 Stoppin' the clocks when you do that thing
 So you're gonna shake for the Mississippi king
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send for your medicine
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send for your medicine
 ♪
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send for your medicine
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send for your medicine
 ♪
 I know you've been bruised by losers, lovers, liars
 Set the tables long, baby, labor lives no longer
 Spend all your life and you'll wish it were flowers
 Your camera's full of petals, can't back up those hours
 Stoppin' the clocks when you do that thing
 So you're gonna shake for the Mississippi king
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send for your medicine
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send
 Now you're gonna send for your medicine
 Now you're gonna sing
