Mississippi
As I was travelling across Mississippi on my to New Orleans
As I spied that state line sign it hit me and I began to sing
M-I-crooked letter- crooked letter- I
crooked letter- crooked letter- I
hump back- hump back- I
that spells Mississippi and it ain't no lie
ain't no lie
Well just like my grandpappy taught me
as I was learnin' to read and write
he said sing this song and you can't go wrong
you'll always spell Mississippi right!
M-I-crooked letter- crooked letter- I
crooked letter- crooked letter- I
hump back- hump back- I
that spells Mississippi and it ain't no lie
M-I-crooked letter- crooked letter- I
crooked letter- crooked letter- I
hump back- hump back- I
that spells Mississippi and it ain't no lie
Mississippi boys make me cry
Mississippi weed gets me high
that's spells
Mississippi, Mississippi, Mississippi
and it ain't no lie
