Mississippi Sand Recorded by Johnny Cash Written by June Carter
C G7 I was born down in the bottoms of the flat black Delta land F C I grew up pickin' cotton in the Mississippi sand F My momma said son take that girl and go make her your wife G7 C Or you'll be stuck here in this mud all of your life
F C G7 C Will the water roll it all away this secret that I hold F C G7 C Will the water roll it all away will it cleanse my achin' soul F C G7 C Well a man's gotta make it sometime a man's gotta take a stand G7 C Or he'll get left in the Mississippi sand
G7 A stranger came to town with two-tone shoes upon his feet F C Singin' songs of sadness pickin' girls off the street F He made a little bit of music was a leader of a band G7 C And they call him the muddy Mississippi band
G7 My girl was Ruby Colter and she was in her teens F C I took her out to churches to socials schools and things F She was a rose just right for pickin' and he nipped her in the bud G7 C And he left her here in the Mississippi mud
repeat #2
G7 Then me and ol' Carl we caught him right down by the store F C We choked him just a little bit and held him to the floor F We relieved him of his pocketbook his blood and other things G7 C Now the Mississippi man's no longer mean
