Mississippi Lady歌词

作词 : Croce
With just a sleeping bag and an old guitar,
I left the band in
New Orleans
I did some time with the bottle, some with the river queens
I never thought
I would meet a girl who could turn my head around
Till I met that
Mississippi
Lady in sleepy
Gulfport town
She was a
Mississippi
Lady, my lovin'
Gulfport gal
She taught me how to love and she really loved me well
She took me up to heaven then she brought me down
That Mississippi
Lady, Sweet
Cordelia Brown
Hot July in
Gulfport and
I was working in the bars
And she was working on the street with the rest of the evening stars
She said, "I never met a guy who could turn my head around"
And that's really sayin' something for
Sweet Cordelia
BrownShe was a
Mississippi
Lady, my lovin'
Gulfport gal
She taught me how to love and she really loved me well
She took me up to heaven then she brought me down
That Mississippi
Lady, Sweet
Cordelia Brown
Now I'm back in
New York City playin' in a band
But my mind's on
Mississippi, is it hard to understand?
I never thought
I would meet a girl who could bring me that far down
Like the girl
I met in Gulfport,
Sweet Cordelia
BrownShe was a
Mississippi
Lady, my lovin'
Gulfport gal
She taught me how to love and she really loved me well
She took me up to heaven then she brought me down
That Mississippi
Lady, Sweet
Cordelia Brown
That Mississippi
Lady, Sweet
Cordelia Brown
