Текст Charley Pride – Missin’ Mississippi

Текст:

Momma and daddy raisin’ cotton and kids
Where the Mississippi River rolls
Plantin’ our dreams in that black delta dirt
Choppin’ out another tomorrow

A sharecropper’s shack in a hot cotton patch
Was home sweet home to me
And I would’t take a mansion in trade
For my Mississippi memories

Oh I’m missin’ Mississippi
Miss that misty delta dawn
Oh I’m missin’ Mississippi
Oh I miss my Mississippi home

Now the kids have grown up and momma’s passed on
And daddy’s age is startin’ to show
Things have changed there’s a big four lane
Where the delta cotton used to grow
But time hasn’t touched my daddy’s love
For his hard workin’ sharecropper’s wife
Cause I’ve overheard his soft tender words
When he talks to her picture at night

Oh I’m missin’ Mississippi
Miss that misty delta dawn
Oh I’m missin’ Mississippi
Oh I miss my Mississippi home
Oh I miss my Mississippi home
