Capo on the 2nd fret
Standard Tuning
Intro Chords: Just jam out on that G chord
(Verse 1)
Old Mr. Deville, from up in Clarksdale, shot his brother with a pop pop pop
spent twenty years of hard time, before he saw the light
now he s preaching on the corner of a Mississippi Saturday night.
Drive by the pawn shop bail bond motel, dream all you want you ain t going nowhere
the ladies at the juke joint, are looking for a fight
and they ll hunt you like a rabbit on a Mississippi Saturday night.
(Chorus)
Vicksburg, Natchez, down to Crescent City
the Gulf Coast blues oh it sure is a pity
don t make a lot of money, baby thats alright
cause we make a lot of loving on a Mississippi Saturday night.
(Verse 2)
Old Mr. Simon from Hushpuckena, he s having coffee with your maw maw and your paw paw
if you re messing with his daughter you better treat her right
or he ll tree you like a possum on a Mississippi Saturday night.
(Chorus)
Vicksburg, Natchez, down to Crescent City
the Gulf Coast blues oh it sure is a pity
don t make a lot of money, baby thats alright
cause we make a lot of loving on a Mississippi Saturday night.
(Verse 3)
Drive to the ballpark, out by the Wal-Mart, parked on the levee drinking forties in a Skylark
people on the river are hoping for a bite
whole mess of catfish cooking on a Mississippi Saturday night.
Old Mr. Hayward, sings like a jaybird, more like a jailbird inside a FEMA trailer
your gonna need a pirogue, the waters getting high
or you ll be sleeping in the river on a Mississippi Saturday night.
(Chorus)
Vicksburg, Natchez, down to Crescent City
the Gulf Coast blues oh it sure is a pity
don t make a lot of money, baby thats alright
cause we make a lot of loving on a Mississippi Saturday night.
Vicksburg, Natchez, down to Crescent City
the Gulf Coast blues oh it sure is a pity
don t make a lot of money, baby thats alright
cause we make a lot of loving on a Mississippi Saturday night.
