Lyrics:
Mama don’t you worry now, ‘bout the things I’ve done.
Don’t you worry Mama, it won’t help you none.
I’ve been living on those rails, the Devil’s talkin’ cheap.
I’ve been sippin’ that turpentine, drink it nice and slow.
I’ve been dancin’ with those girls baby, you know you never know.
Drinkin’ with all those pretty girls on your Daddy’s dime.
Mississippi Moon, oh you don’t last for long
Mississippi Moon, oh you don’t last for long. Â Mississippi Moon, oh you don’t last for long.
How you last for long, now that you was gone?
Oh I’ve lived this river now, rhythm takes its toll.
Saved up all my life, for when I get old.
That steel box car kills, it saved my life.
Girl loves me like a river now, you know she might be the one.
Takes a chance on me, when I got none.
Maybe that little old pretty girl gonna be the one?
Mississippi Moon, oh you don’t last for long.
Mississippi Moon, oh you don’t last for long.
How you last for long, now that you was gone?
Mama don’t you worry now, ‘bout the things I’ve done.
Don’t you worry Mama, can’t help you none.
I’ve been livin’ on those rails, the Devil’s talkin’ cheap.
