Mississippi Woman Lyrics - Waylon Jennings

The reflections of the trees are cut by the bow of my pirogue 

Spattered by the paddle of my eager hand 

That Mississippi woman is a wavin' over yonder 

Wavin' her lantern to her Louisiana man 

How I love that Mississippi woman 

How I love that Mississippi girl 

How I love that Mississippi woman 

But her heart did not belong to me 

The reflections of the trees are cut by the bow of my pirogue 

Splattered by the paddle of my eager hand 

The silence from behind me is alive with the splashing alligators 

And the lantern light is blinking on the bottom in the sand
