Mississippi Lady
(originale)
With just a sleeping bag
And an old guitar
I left the band in New Orleans
Did some time with the bottle
And some with the river queens
Never thought I would meet a girl
Who could turn my head around
'Til I met that Mississippi lady
In sleepy Gulfport town, she was a
Mississippi lady
My lovin' Gulfport gal
She taught me how to love
And she really loved me well
She took me up to heaven
Then she brought me down
That Mississippi lady
Sweet Cordelia Brown
Hot July in Gulfport
And I was working in the bars
She was working on the street
With the rest of the evening stars
She said, «I never met a guy
Who could turn my head around»
And that’s really sayin' something
For sweet Cordelia Brown, she was a
Mississippi lady
My lovin' Gulfport gal
She taught me how to love
And she really loved me well
She took me up to heaven
Then she brought me down
That Mississippi lady
Sweet Cordelia Brown
Now I’m back in New York City
Playin' in a band
But my mind’s on Mississippi
Is it hard to understand
I never thought I would meet a girl
Who could bring me that far down
Like the girl I met in Gulfport
Sweet Cordelia Brown, she was a
Mississippi lady
My lovin' Gulfport gal
She taught me how to love
And she really loved me well
She took me up to heaven
Then she brought me down
That Mississippi lady
Sweet Cordelia Brown
That Mississippi lady
Sweet Cordelia Brown
That Mississippi lady
Sweet Cordelia Brown
(traduzione)
Con solo un sacco a pelo
E una vecchia chitarra
Ho lasciato la band a New Orleans
Ho passato un po' di tempo con la bottiglia
E alcuni con le regine del fiume
Non avrei mai pensato di incontrare una ragazza
Chi potrebbe girare la mia testa
Fino a quando non ho incontrato quella signora del Mississippi
