Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作词 : Croce
[00:07.000] With just a sleeping bag and an old guitar, I left the band in New Orleans
[00:14.000] I did some time with the bottle, some with the river queens
[00:20.000] I never thought I would meet a girl
[00:24.000] who could turn my head around
[00:26.000] Till I met that Mississippi Lady in sleepy Gulfport town
[00:32.000] She was a Mississippi Lady, my lovin' Gulfport gal
[00:40.000] She taught me how to love and she really loved me well
[00:47.000] She took me up to heaven then she brought me down
[00:52.000] That Mississippi Lady, Sweet Cordelia Brown
[01:01.000] Hot July in Gulfport and I was working in the bars
[01:08.000] And she was working on the street with the rest of the evening stars
[01:14.000] She said, "I never met a guy who could turn my head around"
[01:20.000] And that's really sayin' something for Sweet Cordelia Brown
[01:26.000] She was a Mississippi Lady, my lovin' Gulfport gal
[01:34.000] She taught me how to love and she really loved me well
[01:40.000] She took me up to heaven then she brought me down
[01:46.000] That Mississippi Lady, Sweet Cordelia Brown
[01:57.000] Now I'm back in New York City playin' in a band
[02:04.000] But my mind's on Mississippi, is it hard to understand?
[02:11.000] I never thought I would meet a girl who could bring me that far down
[02:16.000] Like the girl I met in Gulfport, Sweet Cordelia Brown
[02:23.000] She was a Mississippi Lady, my lovin' Gulfport gal
[02:30.000] She taught me how to love and she really loved me well
[02:37.000] She took me up to heaven then she brought me down
[02:42.000] That Mississippi Lady, Sweet Cordelia Brown
[02:48.000] That Mississippi Lady, Sweet Cordelia Brown
