Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta
Have me a little that Johnny cake

Pickin them scuppernon's

Chigger bite, it's goin'
to beat howdy
Ate me a bucket of Muscadine
Sit on the riverbank after dark
Drop my line down a crawdad hole
Do him in with a scaly bark

Wearin last years possum belt
Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta
Sittin and scratchin'

Old fox done give him the slip
Watchin' the mornin' glories grow
In Biloxi on an overnight trip
I bet five dollars to win two bits
Eat a peppermint stick on Sunday
Ain't no use in'a hurrying up
Can't leave till a
