M, I, double S, I,
Double S, I, double P, I.
M, I, double S, I,
Double S, I, double P, I.
Right in the middle of the cotton <snip>
Down in the Mississippi delta,
There you lost your blossom <snip>
Depth in the Mississippi delta.
I had mean little red Johnny cake,
A little bit of the <snip> it.
Pickin' on <snip> I know I dropped back <snip>
Take a bar of corn to <snip> it.
Do in the middle of stadium bar,
One <snip> John feel <snip>
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do in the middle of stadium bar,
One <snip> John feel <snip>
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
M, I, double S, I,
Double S, I, double P, I.
M, I, double S, I,
Double S, I, double P, I.
Right in the middle of the cotton <snip>
Down in the Mississippi delta,
There you lost your blossom <snip>
Depth in the Mississippi delta.
I had mean little red Johnny cake,
A little bit of the <snip> it.
Pickin' on <snip> I know I dropped back <snip>
Take a bar of corn to <snip> it.
Do in the middle of stadium bar,
One <snip> John feel <snip>
