Inspired by New Orleans
Lyrics
Left from Carolina headed for New Orleans
started west out to Tennessee
bout’ then it started rainin’ far as I could see
I heard the levys broke and let in the sea
Oh Mississippi flow
flow to the Gulf of Mexico
Headed for the highground, they said go west
so I’m thinkin’ Texas probably ain’t the best
I packed my bag and flipped my thumb
I’m gonna get some California sun
Oh Mississippi flow
flow to the Gulf of Mexico
So I’m gettin’ close to the Pacific sea
The Rocky Mountains right in front of me
I said Colorado is the place to be
then I turned my back on the Pacific sea
Oh Mississippi flow
flow to the Gulf of Mexico
North Dakota, South Dakota and one in between
I guess I just go back to New Orleans
that’s where the music plays and the fun ain’t clean
Where the people on the streets
your always happy to see
Chorus
