Ghosts Of Mississippi

Lyrics

Late one night behind corn whiskey
 I fell asleep with a guitar in my hand
 I dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi
 And the blues came walkin' like a man
 Without a word I passed that guitar over
 He tuned it up like I'd never seen
 A crooked smile was his expression
 He closed his eyes and then began to sing
 Oh-oh Lord, why have you forsaken me?
 Got me down in Mississippi where I don't wanna be
 Oh-oh Lord, why have you forsaken me?
 Got me down in Mississippi where I don't wanna be
 ♪
 When I woke up I looked into the mirror
 I saw no reflection for a while
 But as my eyes came into focus
 I recognized that crooked smile
 Oh-oh Lord, why have you forsaken me?
 Got me down in Mississippi where I don't wanna be
 Oh-oh Lord, why have you forsaken me?
 Got me down in Mississippi where I don't wanna be
 ♪
 Late one night behind corn whiskey
 I fell asleep with a guitar in my hand
 I dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi
 And the blues came walkin' like a man
 Oh-oh Lord, why have you forsaken me?
 Got me down in Mississippi where I don't wanna be
 Oh-oh Lord, why have you forsaken me?
 Got me down in Mississippi where I don't wanna be
 Oh-oh Lord, why have you forsaken me?
 Got me down in Mississippi where I don't wanna be
 Oh-oh Lord, why have you forsaken me?
 Got me down in Mississippi where I don't wanna be
 ♪
 I don't wanna be
 ♪
 Where I don't wanna be
 ♪
 I don't wanna be
 ♪
 I already know one thing
