(Bessie Smith)
Dixie moonlight, Swanee shore
Headed homebound just once more
To my Mississippi delta home
Southland got that grand garden spot
Although you believe or not
I hear those breeze a-whispering
Come
on
back
to
me
Muddy water 'round my feet
Muddy water in the street
No God don't shelter
Down on the delta
Muddy water in my shoes
Reeling and rocking to them lowdown blues
They live in ease and comfort down there
I do declare
Been away a year today
To wander and roam
I don't care it's muddy there
But this is my home
Got my toes turned Dixie way
'Round the delta let me lay
My heart cries out for muddy water
Been away a year today
To wander and roam
I don't care it's muddy there
But this is my home
Got my toes turned Dixie way
'Round the delta let me lay
My heart cries out for muddy water
