Letra
0:15As far back as I can remember
0:21I either had a plow or hoe
0:26One of those 'ole nine foot sacs
0:31Standing at the old turn row
0:36Down in Mississippi
0:41Down in Mississippi
0:46Down in Mississippi where I was born
0:51Down in Mississippi where I come from
1:07They had a hunting season on the rabbit
1:13If you shoot em you went to jail
1:18Season was a always open on me
1:23Nobody needed no band
1:29Down in Mississippi
1:33Down in Mississippi
1:38Down in Mississippi where I was born
1:43Down in Mississippi where I come from
1:59I remember I use to walk down that gravel road walking with my grandma
2:09Mississippi sun beaming down
2:15I went to get some water
2:18My grandma said young 'un you can't drink that water
2:24She said you drink from that fountain over there heha
2:31And that fountain had a sign
2:36Said for color only
2:41I was so glad I had my grandma and my papa a huh
2:48And I wont leave you out grandpa
2:51My grandpa was so proud of me y'all
2:54I went down in forest Mississippi one time na
2:58Didn't know no better but I integrated
3:02Awasha terrier
3:05He was telling everybody my grandbaby mavis
3:10She went up to washa terrier and washed some clothes
3:15And all the black ladies fallowed her on up in there
3:22I'm proud of my grand baby
3:25I saw many more of those signs as I lived in Mississippi
3:33I'm so glad I can say that I saw everyone of those signs
3:43Dr King saw that everyone of those signs got taken down
3:49Down in Mississippi
3:58Down in Mississippi
4:03Down in Mississippi where I come from
4:08Down in Mississippi where I was born
As far back as I can remember I either had a plow or hoe One of those 'ole nine foot sacs Standing at the old turn row Down in Mississippi Down in Mississippi Down in Mississippi where I was born Down in Mississippi where I come from They had a hunting season on the rabbit If you shoot em you went to jail Season was a always open on me Nobody needed no band Down in Mississippi Down in Mississippi Down in Mississippi where I was born Down in Mississippi where I come from I remember I use to walk down that gravel road walking with my grandma Mississippi sun beaming down I went to get some water My grandma said young 'un you can't drink that water She said you drink from that fountain over there heha And that fountain had a sign Said for color only I was so glad I had my grandma and my papa a huh And I wont leave you out grandpa My grandpa was so proud of me y'all I went down in forest Mississippi one time na Didn't know no better but I integrated Awasha terrier He was telling everybody my grandbaby mavis She went up to washa terrier and washed some clothes And all the black ladies fallowed her on up in there I'm proud of my grand baby I saw many more of those signs as I lived in Mississippi I'm so glad I can say that I saw everyone of those signs Dr King saw that everyone of those signs got taken down Down in Mississippi Down in Mississippi Down in Mississippi where I come from Down in Mississippi where I was born
