Mississippi Delta

Bobbie Gentry

M, I, double S, I
Double S, I, double P, I
M, I, double S, I
Double S, I, double P, I

Right in the middle of the cotton belt
Down in the Mississippi Delta
Wearin' last year possum belt
Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta

I have me a little that Johnny cake
A little bit of that apple pan dowdy
Pickin' them scuppernon's drop that down
Chigger bite of corn to beat howdy

Do him in with a scaly bark
One-ree-yo-ree
Anne-nick-and-john-feel-bay
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Do him in with a scaly bark
One-ree-yo-ree
Anne-nick-and-john-feel-bay
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

M, I, double S, I
Double S, I, double P, I
M, I, double S, I
Double S, I, double P, I

Right in the middle of the cotton belt
Down in the Mississippi Delta
Wearin' last year possum belt
Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta

I have me a little that Johnny cake
A little bit of that apple pan dowdy
Pickin' them scuppernon's drop that down
Chigger bite of corn to beat howdy
