Songtext von Mississipi Blues

I was born down in Mississippi, where the river runs so deep But now I'm feelin’ so hurt, Oh Lord, I can’t even sleep She took my heart and broke it, left me cryin’ all alone Now I'm packin’ up my bags, tryin’ to find my way back home Oh Lord, I'm hurtin’, this pain cuts to the bone I said goodbye to her love, now the road is all I own Mississippi’s callin’, it’s where I’ll make my stand Goin’ back to the Delta, with a guitar in my hand I remember the nights, the moonlight on her face But goodbye came too easy, and now I'm missin’ her embrace The whistle of the train, it’s the soundtrack of my pain Every mile closer to home, I feel that blues again The crossroads are behind me, but the devil left his mark I'm searchin’ for the daylight, lost in this endless dark Mississippi, take me, to the place I used to know Where the blues heal the broken, and the river softly flows Mississippi nights, Oh Lord, I'm comin’ home Where the blues and the river never leave a man alone
