Grateful Dead - Mississippi Halfstep слова песни
On the day when I was born Daddy sat down and cried.
I had the mark just as plain as day; which could not be denied.
They say that Cain caught Abel rollin` loaded dice;
Ace of Spades behind his ear and him not thinkin` twice.
Halfstep, Mississippi uptown toodeloo Hello, baby, I`m gone, good-bye
Half a cup of Rock and Rye. Farewell to you old Southern skies
I`m on my way, on my way.
If all you got to live for is what you left behind,
Get yourself a powder charge and seal that silver mine.
Lost my boots in transit, baby, pile of smokin` leather.
I nailed a retread to my feet and prayed for better weather.
Halfstep, Mississippi uptown toodeloo Hello, baby, I`m gone, good-bye
Half a cup of Rock and Rye. Farewell to you old Southern skies
I`m on my way, on my way.
They say that when your ship comes in, the first man takes the sails;
What`s the point of callin` shots; this cue ain`t straight in line.
Cue ball`s made of Styrofoam and no one`s got the time.
Halfstep, Mississippi uptown toodeloo Hello, baby, I`m gone, good-bye
Half a cup of Rock and Rye. Farewell to you old Southern skies
I`m on my way, on my way.
Across the Rio Grandeeo, Across the lazy river.
