Mississippi Lyrics - Singles - John Phillips

Hit it, Hal 

 

Early in the mornin', she hitched a ride down to Louisville 

Holdin' onto a hundred dollar bill 

Dressed herself like a Cajun Queen in New Orleans, baby 

Yeah, she looked good, like a lady 

 

Do it to me, James 

 

And the Mississippi River runs like molasses in the summertime 

And me, you know, I don't hardly mind 

 

Sippin' on a beer in Bourbon Street and I'm sittin' easy 

Don't get me wrong, it takes a lot to please me 

 

Have a seat an' take a load off your feet, and she said "Yes" 

So I said, "I like your dress" 

Swamps all around make ya feel kinda funny, don't they, honey 

She crossed her legs and looked at me funny 

 

Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin' 

Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin' (what you're doin') 

Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin' 

Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin' 

 

Joseph 

{Bass: Joe Osborn} 

 

Early in the mornin', she hitched a ride down to Louisville (Louisville) 

Holdin' onto a hundred dollar bill 

Dressed herself like a Cajun Queen in New Orleans, baby 

Yeah, she looked good, like a lady 

 

And the Mississippi River, it runs like molasses in the summertime 

And me, you know, I don't hardly mind 

 

Sippin' on a beer in Bourbon Street and I'm sittin' easy 

Don't get me wrong, it takes a lot to please me 

 

Everybody sing 

 

Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin' 

Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin' 

 

Have a seat, take a load off your feet, and she said "Yes" 

So I said, "I like your dress" 

Swamps all around make ya feel kinda funny, don't they, honey 

She crossed her legs and looked at me funny 

 

[Repeat until fade] 

Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin' 

Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin' (what you're doin')
