F Bb F
I'm going down to Mississippi
Bb C
I'm going down a southern road
F Bb F
And if you never see me again
Bb C
Remember that I had to go
F Bb C
Remember that I had to go
F Bb F
It's a long road down to Mississipi
Bb C
It's a short road back the other way
F Bb F
If the cops pull you over to the side of the road
Bb C
You won't have nothing to say
F Bb C
No, you won't have nothing to say
F Bb F
There's a man waiting down in Mississippi
Bb C
And he's waiting with a rifle in his hand
F Bb F
And he's looking down the road for an out-of-state car
Bb C
And he thinks he's fighting for his land
F Bb C
Yes, he thinks he's fighting for his land
F Bb F
And he won't know the clothes I'm wearing
Bb C
And he doesn't know the name that I own
F Bb F
But his gun is large and his hate is hard
Bb C
And he knows I'm coming down the road
F Bb C
Yes, he knows I'm coming down the road
F Bb F
It's not for the glory that I'm leaving
Bb C
It's not trouble that I'm looking for
F Bb F
But there's lots of good work that's calling me down
Bb C
And The waiting won't do no more
F Bb C
No, The waiting won't do no more
F Bb F
Don't call me the brave one for going
Bb C
No, don't pin a medal to my name
F Bb F
For even if there was any choice to make
Bb C
I'd be going down just the same
F Bb C
I'd be going down just the same
F Bb F
For someone's got to go to mississipi
Bb C
Just as sure as there's a right and there's a wrong
F Bb F
Even though you say the time will change
Bb C
That time is just too long
F Bb C
That time is just too long
F Bb F
So I'm going down to Mississipi
Bb C
I'm going down a southern road
F Bb F
And if you never see me again
Bb C
Remember that I had to go
F Bb C
Remember that I had to go
