|
Even though the weight was heavy |
|
I was happy under levy |
|
Wanna take my ride for place |
|
In the Mississippi Basin back home |
|
Where I did at home |
|
Everybody was for me there |
|
All the folks work on and free there |
|
Used to love to wash my face |
|
In that Mississippi Basin back home |
|
There goes summer land |
|
That's the song I'm singing all day |
|
Even something, baby |
|
Why did I leave you, why did I go away |
|
Soon I'm gonna make a bee line |
|
But an old place for me and |
|
Way across the basin, dig line |
|
That Mississippi Basin back home |
