Bob Margolin - Heaven Mississippi

Текст песни

Maybe I was dreaming
I’m not really sure
I never heard his footsteps
Or the creaking of my door
But standing by my bedside
Younger than the dawn
Marty Waters said poor Bob
It’s time to sail on
His finger caught the moonlight
Seems he wore a silver slide
I looked again and shook my head
My eyes opened wide
I know we were in Cartsdale
Was it now or way before
Marty’s house was rocking
He led me through the door
Heaven Mississippi
The blues I love was there
Heaven heaven Mississippi
Old school blues filled the air
Robert Johnson and the devil
Still walked side by side
In heaven Mississippi
The blues will never die
That’s alright sang Jimmy Rogers
Bye bye sang Nappy Brown
Sonny Land and Pine Top
Tore that piano up and down
Marty handed me his slide
Well yeah shook the walls
Willy Big Eyed Smith hit the back beat
And Forest Jones bass had balls
Heaven Mississippi
The blues I love was there
Heaven heaven Mississippi
Old school blues filled the air
Robert Johnson and the devil
Still walked side by side
In heaven Mississippi
The blues will never die
Hubert and Coco
Wang Dang Doodle till the day
Don’t mess with Junior Wells
Or Freddy’s Hideaway
I closed my eyes and shook my head
And when my sight came back
My head was in the pillow
But my soul was in that shack
Heaven heaven Mississippi
The blues I love was there
Heaven heaven Mississippi
Old school blues filled the air
Robert Johnson and the devil
Still walked side by side
In heaven Mississippi
The blues will never die
Never die
Never die
Woo
