Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodeloo - Live at Capital Centre, September 25, 1976

On the day when I was born Daddy sat down and cried
 I had the mark just as plain as day could not be denied
 They say that Cain caught Abel rollin' loaded dice
 Ace of Spades behind his ear and him not thinkin' twice
 Half step, Mississippi uptown toodeloo
 Hello, baby, I'm gone, goodbye
 Half a cup of Rock and Rye
 Farewell to you old Southern skies
 I'm on my way, on my way
 If all you got to live for is what you left behind
 Get yourself a powder charge, seal that silver mine
 Lost my boots in transit, baby pile of smokin' leather
 A retread to my feet and prayed for better weather
 Half step, Mississippi uptown toodeloo
 Hello, baby, I'm gone, goodbye
 Half a cup of Rock and Rye
 Farewell to you old Southern skies
 I'm on my way, on my way
 Oh when your ship comes in the first man takes the sails
 Second takes the afterdeck, the third, the planks and rails
 What's the point of callin' shots this cue ain't straight in line
 Cue ball's made of styrofoam and no one's got the time
 Half step, Mississippi uptown Toodeloo
 Hello, baby, I'm gone, goodbye
 Half a cup of Rock and Rye
 Farewell to you old Southern skies
 I'm on my way, on my way
 Across the Rio Grandeeo, across the lazy river
 Across the Rio Grandeeo, across the lazy river
 Across the Rio Grandeeo, across the lazy river
 Across the Rio Grandeeo, across the lazy river
 Across the Rio Grandeeo, across the lazy river
