John Phillips - Mississippi (single version) lyrics

Hit it, Hal Early in the mornin', she hitched a ride down to Louisville Holdin' onto a hundred dollar bill Dressed herself like a Cajun Queen in New Orleans, baby Yeah, she looked good, like a lady Do it to me, James And the Mississippi River runs like mola**es in the summertime And me, you know, I don't hardly mind Sippin' on a beer in Bourbon Street and I'm sittin' easy Don't get me wrong, it takes a lot to please me Have a seat and take a load off your feet and she said, yes So I said, I like your dress Swamps all around make ya feel kinda funny, don't they, honey? She crossed her legs and looked at me funny Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Joseph Early in the mornin', she hitched a ride down to Louisville Holdin' onto a hundred dollar bill Dressed herself like a Cajun Queen in New Orleans, baby Yeah, she looked good, like a lady And the Mississippi River, it runs like mola**es in the summertime And me, you know, I don't hardly mind Sippin' on a beer in Bourbon Street and I'm sittin' easy Don't get me wrong, it takes a lot to please me Everybody sing Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Have a seat and take a load off your feet and she said, yes So I said, I like your dress Swamps all around make ya feel kinda funny, don't they, honey? She crossed her legs and looked at me funny Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'? Down on the bayou, why, you never know just what you're doin'?
