Mississippi Mud Lyrics - Dean Martin

When the sun goes down the tide goes out 

The people gather round and they all begin to shout 

Hey hey Uncle Dud it's a treat to beat your feet on the Mississippi mud 

It's a treat to beat your feet on the Mississippi mud 

What a dance do they do 

Lordy how I'm telling you 

They don't need no band 

They keep time by clapping their hands 

Just as happy as a cow chewing on a cud 

When the people beat their feet on the Mississippi mud

Lordy how they play it 

Goodness how they sway it 

Uncle Joe, Uncle Jim 

How they pound the mire with vigor and vim 

Joy the music thrills me 

Boy it nearly kills me 

What a show when they go 

Say they beat up either fast or slow 

When the sun goes down the tide goes out 

The people gather round and they all begin to shout 

Say hey Uncle Dud it's a treat to beat your feet on the Mississippi mud 

It's a treat to beat your feet on the Mississippi mud 

What a dance do they do 

Lordy how I'm telling you 

They don't need no band 

They keep time by clapping their hands 

Just as happy as a cow chewing on a cud 

When the people beat their feet on the Mississippi mud
