It's a late night show, on the radioGoin' down the road, with the wolf-manLightnin' bugs all around, moonlight shinin' downOn little sleepy towns, down in the flat-landI can still hear mama callingSon it's tome to come on inAnd when the darkness started fallin'Everybody gathered 'round the table, amen.Mississippi Moon hanging in the hazeI wish I never left youSpent enough time in the old rat raceGoin' back down to the DeltaBarbecues, back porch newsAnd guitar blues, just about sundownMockingbird melodies, watermelon memoriesCruising the streets, downtownHot summer nights down on the levyShe spread the blanket on the groundThere ain't no feeling like the first timeWhen the innocence is lost and love is foundMississippi Moon hanging in the hazeSongtexteI could almost reach out and touch youBeen so long and I've missed your faceGoin' back down to the DeltaI'm tired of searching for the answersAlways out there on the runI'm going back to where my heart isDown Highway 61Mississippi Moon hanging in the hazeAlmost reach and touch youBeen so long and I've missed your faceGoin' back down to the DeltaMississippi Moon hanging in the hazeWish I never left youSpent enough time in the old rat raceGoin' back down to the DeltaMississippi MoonMississippi Moon Aus Songtexte Mania
