Bob Margolin - Heaven Mississippi lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Hook] 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 [Verse 2] 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 ba** had balls [Hook] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Hook] 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
