歌詞
Far as back as I can remember
I either had to plough or hoe
One of those long old nine feet sacks
Standin' at the old turn row
Down in Mississippi, down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi where I was born
Down in Mississippi where I come from
Nothing I got against Mississippi
Is also was the home of my wife
But I feel just like I'm a lucky man
Get away with my life
Down in Mississippi, down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi where I was born
Down in Mississippi where I come from
They had a huntin' season on a rabbit
If you shoot him you went to jail
The season was always open on me
Nobody needed no bail
Down in Mississippi, down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi where I was born
Down in Mississippi where I come from
