Mississippi You're On My Mind(Chords)

	        Mississippi your on my mind by Jesse Winchetser  

D                 D7   G                        D    
I think I see      a   wagon rutted road  
                                                                                A7  
 with the weeds growing tall between the tracks,  
            D                       D7    G                               D  
 and along one side      runs a rusty barbed wire fence  
                                              A7              D  
 and beyond  there sits an old tar paper shack  

G  
Mississippi, you're on my mind,   
          D                                           G7  
Missis--sippi, you're on my mind,  woh,    
   D            A7                              D     
woh Missis-  -sippi you're on my mind.
  

I think I hear a noisy old John Deer   
in a field specked with dirty cotton lint,   
and below the field runs a little shady creek,  
 and there you'll find the cool green leaves of mint.  
{Chorus}  
I think I smell the honeysuckle vine,   
the heavy sweetness like to make me sick.   
And the dogs, my God, they're hungry all the time  
 and the snakes are sleeping where the weeds are thick.  
{Chorus}  
I think I feel an angry oven heat,  
 the southern sun just blazes in the sky.   
And in the dusty weeds, an old fat grasshopper jumps.   
I wanna make it to that creek before I fry.  
{Chorus}
