Forever stuck in Mississippi Cause Mississippi's stuck in me I don't want no other cities Just magnolia trees If you please I'm a pilgrim and a stranger That don't make, oh nevermind Want the velvet ditch to hold me Till the end of time It'll be just fine Want to float on down the river On a cloud of cotton dreams Pour some drink for Mr. Junior Juke all night for free and never leave I'm a pilgrim and a stranger That don't make, oh nevermind Want the velvet ditch to hold me Till the end of time It'll be just fine
