Charley Pride - Mississippi Cotton Pickin' Delta Town Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Mississippi Cotton Pickin’ Delta Town
  • (Chorus)
  • In a Mississippi cotton pickin’ delta town
  • One dusty street to walk up and down
  • Nothing much to do but hang around
  • In a Mississippi cotton pickin’ delta town
  • Down in the delta where I was born
  • All we raised was cotton, potatoes and corn
  • I’ve picked cotton ‘til my fingers hurt
  • Draggin’ a sack through the delta dirt
  • I’ve worked hard the whole weeklong
  • Pickin’ my fingers to the blood and bone
  • Ain’t a lot of money in cotton bale
  • At least when you try to sell
  • (Repeat chorus)
  • On Saturday night, we’d get dressed up
  • Catch us a ride on a pickup truck
  • On a gravel road that nearly strangled us
  • That cotton pickin’ delta dust
  • We’d sit across the street on the depot porch
  • Lookin’ at the folks lookin’ back at us
  • Munchin’ on a dust covered ice cream cone
  • Wondering how we’d get back home
  • (Repeat chorus)
