ghosts of mississippi - the steeldrivers lyrics
[chorus 1]
late one night behind corn whiskey
i fell asleep with a guitar in my hand
i dreamed about the ghosts of mississippi
and the blues came walking like a man
[verse 1]
without a word i p-ssed that guitar over
he tuned it up like i’d never seen
a crooked smile was his expression
then he closed his eyes and began to sing
[chorus 2]
oh lord why have you forsaken me
got me down in mississippi
where i don’t want to be
oh lord why have you forsaken me
got me down in mississippi
where i don’t want to be
[verse 2]
when i woke up i looked into the mirror
i saw no reflection for a while
but as my eyes came into focus
i recognized that crooked smile
[chorus 2]
oh lord why have you forsaken me
got me down in mississippi
where i don’t want to be
oh lord why have you forsaken me
got me down in mississippi
where i don’t want to be
[chorus 1]
late one night behind corn whiskey
i fell asleep with a guitar in my hand
i dreamed about the ghosts of mississippi
and the blues came walking like a man
[chorus 2]
oh lord why have you forsaken me
got me down in mississippi
where i don’t want to be
oh lord why have you forsaken me
got me down in mississippi
where i don’t want to be
