Mississippi Blues Lyrics - Mark Knopfler

Goin' down to the delta 

Where I can have my fun 

Goin' down to the delta 

Where I can have my fun 

Where I can drink my white lightnin', gamble 

I can bring my baby home 

Don't the delta look lonesome 

When that evening sun go down? 

Don't this delta look lonesome 

When that evenin' sun goes down 

Well, you been lookin' for your baby 

Don't know where she could be found

Goin' back to my use-to-be 

Although that she have done me wrong 

Goin' back to my use-to-be 

Although that she have done me wrong 

Well, I think I'll have to forgive her 

'cause I'm tired o' driftin' through this world alone 

She treats me dirty 

But I love her just the same 

Well, she treats me dirty 

But I love her just the same 

Well, it just breaks my heart to hear 

Lord, some other men call her name 

Now goodbye, I'm gon' leave you 

An' I won't be back no more

Now goodbye, I'm gon' leave you 

An' I won't be back no mo' 

Man, my mind gets to ramblin' 

See you in nineteen and forty-fo'
