Lyrics Paul Davis – Magnolia Blues

Text:

I don’t know, if y’all have a dope problem in Atlanter, but I know that, uh in Jackson MS, there has been actually marijuana SOLD on the streets
They out… they out in the street sellin it. The police can not contain ALL the marijuaner that’s in Jackson. That’s the truth

I was born in Soso MS, ain’t that cool
Well the folks at Soso, the Lord knows, they sure can groove

We used to wait for Little Richard on the radio
Waiting for another Fats Domino
Oh, oh…
Oh Lord, you gotta help me through these low-down Magnolia Blues
MS Fred used to sing his a-low down blues
We all had a hard time, but we’d find somethin’ to do
I played the two-finger boogie just as hard as I could
Little Black Charlie used to dance so cool
Oh Lord, you gotta help me through these low-down Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues, ooh…
Uh-huh…

I played the two-finger boogie just as hard as I could
Little Black Charlie used to dance so cool
Oh Lord, you gotta help me through these low-down Magnolia Blues
Down in Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues, ooh…
Uh-uh… Soso blues…

But if you’ve ever seen somebody high on marijuaner, uh, you can tell, they cuticles are dialated
Now I learned that in the Nar, in the Narcotics Trainin’ Prevention in Tupelo MS.
They teach that ever’ 6 months, and we went up there, and, to see it
And they had a boy that, that tried that marijuaner pill
And, uh, his eyes rolled back upon his head, and he liked to, he liked to kicked over
He was shakin and uh, hollerin’, uh

He was hollerin’ that «Trip Out» just as loud as he could
And that’s what he, uh, he was actually what they call «Freakin Out»
