Lyrics Little Richard – Greenwood, Mississippi
Text:
Well I’ve been on the road
for a long time
met a lot of women
had to leave them all behind
’cause I want to go back
to the land I love
where Magnolia smells sweet
and white cotton is warm
to the land I love
where Magnolia smells sweet
and white cotton is warm
Chorus:
Take me on back
Back to the country
Take me on down, down
Greenwood Mississippi
Old farmer John
he lives down the road
works in the fields
carryin’ a heavy load
He don’t have to worry
’bout a thing
’cause everyday now
you can hear him sing
Chorus
