Rory Gallagher - Mississippi Sheiks lyrics

rate me

I saw the Mississippi Sheiks,<br />

On the corner of the street,<br />

Oh, was it just a dream,<br />

Like I've been traveling in a time machine.<br />

<br />

Ohhh.<br />

<br />

So come along with me,<br />

Back to the southern streets,<br />

<br />

I saw old Peg Leg Howell,<br />

His gang was making quite a sound,<br />

I heard Bo Carter wail,<br />

And that git-fiddle-combo played.<br />

<br />

Come along and see,<br />

The Mississippi Sheiks.<br />

<br />

Come on.....<br />

<br />

What you gotta lose,<br />

Can't ya hear me callin', calling you?<br />

To beware should you fall, You've never lived at all,<br />

Till you've done that Georgia crawl,<br />

<br />

Well, I hear you little girl,<br />

You say you've been around this world.<br />

From Moscow to Abilene,<br />

But there is one place you've yet to see,<br />

<br />

So, come along and see,<br />

The Mississippi Sheiks.
