Mississippi Flush Lyrics - Eternal And Lowdown - Ray Wylie Hubbard

Well, they got a little game called five card draw 

They take it serious in Arkansas 

You can make a little money wagerin' on cards 

You can't get to heaven livin' this hard 

Deliver me from my sorrow and shame 

Release me from my burden and pain. 

It's a one eyed jack the suicide king 

The ace of spades and two black queens 

Never draw to an inside straight 

I feel a ten's knockin' at the gate 

Deliver me from my sorrow and shame 

Release me from my burden and pain.

Ooh, blackbird, blackbird fly away home 

Say a prayer over Saint John's bones 

Tell the gambler's their gonna die alone 

Blackbird blackbird fly away home 

Ooh, blackbird, blackbird come back again 

Don't tell momma where I've been 

I'm goin' to the rive I'm gonna jump in 

Ohhh, blackbird, blackbird come back again. 

It's an ace high straight and all the same suit 

Read 'em and weep this hand can't lose 

Somebody said it ain't good enough 

'Cause that don't beat a Mississippi flush 

Mr. Ledbetter will you tell me again 

What's a Mississippi flush and how's it beat this hand 

He said they don't ask questions in the graveyard 

It's a small revolver and any five cards 

Deliver me from my sorrow and shame 

Release me from my burden and pain.
