Mississippi Rainstorm

歌詞

Daddy was a poor share cropper, mama was a showing sign The droughts was gettin' worse, the clouds wouldn't burst When daddy left to find work in the coal mine And daddy would cuss the Alabama sun As he looked on down the road He said, "Nothing's gonna grow If we don't get a Mississippi rainstorm" Daddy said to mama, "You know I hate to leave you here alone 'Cause there ain't much of nothing in the ?? And there's mighty little meat on the bone And mama said to dad, "I love you And I'm proud to have your son And all the time you're gone I pray for a Mississippi rainstorm" Then one dark and cloudy night thunder began to roar The panes got closer and closer and the rain began to pour Mama wrote a letter to Kentucky Sayin', "Daddy come on home 'Cause your Alabama sun's been born In a Mississippi rainstorm Mama wrote a letter to Kentucky Sayin', "Daddy won't you come on home 'Cause your Alabama sun's been born In a Mississippi rainstorm
