John Anderson - Mississippi Moon Lyrics

Send "Mississippi Moon" ringtones to your cell

It's a late night show
On the radio 
Goin' down the road
With the Wolfman
Lightnin' bugs all around
Moonlight shinin' down
On a little sleeply towns
Out in the flatlands, ya'll
I can still hear Mama callin'
Son it's time to come on in
When the darkness started fallin'
Everyone gathered 'round the table amen.

[Chorus]
Mississippi moon hangin' in the haze
Wish I never left you
Been a long time and I missed your face
Goin' on back to the delta.

Barbeques, back porch stews, and the guitar blues
Just about sundown
Mockin' melodies
Watermelon memories
Crusin' the streets downtown
Hot summer night down on the levy
She spread the blanket on the ground
There ain't no feelin' like the first time
When the inocence is lost and love is found

[Chorus]
Mississippi moon hangin' in the haze
Alomst reach and touch you
Spent enough time in that old rat race
Goin' on back to the delta

I'm tired of searchin' for the awnsers
Always out there on the run
I'm goin' back to where my heart is
Down Highway 61

[Chorus]
Mississippi moon hangin' in the haze
Almost reach and touch you
Been a long time and I missed your face
Goin' on back to the delta

[Chorus]
Mississippi moon hangin' in the haze
Wish I never left you
been a long time and I missed your face
Goin' on back to the delta
