Lyrics
--Mississippi on My Mind -- Little Charlie Johnston July 28, 2008 (1) I was born in Kansas City Wasn't born in old Greenwood So I came to Mississippi Just as fast as I could (chorus) Yeah I moved to Mississippi Mississippi blues they are so fine Ever since I heard them blues I've had Mississippi on my mind. (2) Way back when I was young Heard a Willie Dixon song And I started checkin' And it didn't take long (chorus) Till I moved to Mississippi Mississippi blues they are so fine Ever since I heard them blues I've had Mississippi on my mind. Missississippi, Mississippi on my mind. Missississippi, Mississippi on my mind. (3) Left my home in Arizona Put on my travelin' shoes Now I'm living in Mississippi Livin' the life that I choose. (chorus) Glad I came to Mississippi Mississippi blues they are so fine Ever since I heard them blues I've had Mississippi on my mind. (4) My Mississippi woman Sure treats me nice and kind I'm in love with Miss Brenda Kaye I can't get her off my mind (chorus) So glad I moved to Mississippi Mississippi blues they are so fine Ever since I heard them blues I've had Mississippi on my mind. Missississippi, Mississippi on my mind. Missississippi, Mississippi on my mind. (5) Somebody says it's wrong To leave your home behind Ever since I heard them blues I just can't get em' off my mind (chorus) I had to move to Mississippi Mississippi blues they are so fine Ever since I heard them blues I've had Mississippi on my mind. (6) Now I can take my rest I have left it all behind Not worryin bout' a thing Nothin's gonna crowd my mind (chorus) I'm livin' in Mississippi Mississippi blues they are so fine Ever since I heard them blues I've had Mississippi on my mind. Missississippi, Mississippi on my mind. Missississippi, Mississippi on my mind. (Slow way down and finish from the 5) Ever since I heard them Blues (Lord have mercy) Can't get Mississippi off my mind
