[Verse 1]
[G]In a Mis[C]sissippi cotton
pickin' [G]Delta town

[F]a starvin' hound
In a [G]Mississippi cotton

[Verse 2]
[C]Down in the Delta where [G]I was born
All we raised was cotton,
pota[C]toes and corn
I've picked cotton till my
[F]fingers hurt
[G]Draggin' the sack through that Delta [C]dirt

[Verse 3]
[C]
And I've worked hard the

On a gravel road, it nearly [F]strangled us
That [G]cotton pickin' Delta [C]dust

[Verse 6]
We'd [C]sit across the street
on the [G]depot porch
Lookin' at the folks lookin'
[C]back at us
Munchin' on a dust covered
[F]ice cream cone
[G]Wondering how we'd get back [C]home
[G]From a

[Verse 7]
[C]Mississippi cotton
pickin' [G]Delta town
One dusty street to [C]walk up and down
Nothin' much to do but [F]just hang around
In a [G]Mississippi cotton
pickin' Delta [C]town

[Verse 8]
[G]From [C]a Mississippi cotton
pickin' [G]Delta town
One dusty street to [C]walk up and down
Nothin' much to do but just [F]hang around
In a [G]Mississippi cotton pickin' Delta [C]town
