Lyrics
M, I, double S, I, double S, I, double P, I M, I, double S, I, double S, I, double P, I Right in the middle of the Cotton Belt Down in the Mississippi Delta Wearin' last year's possum belt Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta Have me a little that Johnny cake And a bit o' that apple pandowdy Pickin' them scuppernongs off that vine Chigger bite, it's goin' to beat howdy I ate me a bucket of muscadine Sit on the riverbank after dark And drop my line down a crawdad hole Do him in with a scaly bark One-ree-o-ree-ee-ree-ann Fidderliss-farce-nickory-john-queery-quan M, I, double S, I, double S, I, double P, I M, I, double S, I, double S, I, double P, I Right in the middle of the Cotton Belt Down in the Mississippi Delta Wearin' last year's possum belt Smack dab in the Mississippi Delta Sittin' 'n' scratchin' mosquito bites Old fox, I done give him the slip Watchin' those mornin' glories grow In Biloxi on an overnight trip I bet five dollars to win two bits Eat a peppermint stick on Sunday Ain't no use in a-hurryin' up Can't leave 'til a week from Monday One-ree-o-ree-ee-ree-ann Fidderliss-farce-nickory-john-queery-quan In the Mississippi Delta Mis-sis-sis-sis-sis-sip-pi Delta Yeah In the Mississippi Delta
