"Rolling On With Mississippi"

VERSE 1:
I make my home in Mississippi
- I love a big Magnolia tree
Drive through the Delta in October
- miles and miles of Cotton is all you see
Down the road - rolling on - with Mississippi

VERSE 2:
Half way from Memphis to New Orleans
- you can stop & visit for a while
A little food a little drink and a whole lot of blues
- you're sure to leave with a smile
down the road - rolling on - with Mississippi

BRIDGE:
Big Magnolia Tree - roots grow deep, and they say
She's a diamond in the rough - watch out, you just might want to stay

VERSE 3:
Drive on the back roads and you'll fall in love
- breath in the air and you will see
walking round barefoot ain't a bad way to go
- or saying howdy ya'll to everybody that you see
Down the road - rolling on - with Mississippi

Lead section / Bridge

VERSE 4:
I make my home in Mississippi
- I love a big Magnolia tree
Ya'll come on down now if you get a chance
- and you're looking for a little southern hospitality
Down the road - rolling on - with Mississippi
by by Jack - ya'll come back to Mississippi
Down the road - rolling on - with MS / with MS / with MS

Frazier Riddell - Canton Ms Native.  Mississippi original music song writer schooled in Oxford Ms at Ole Miss, that being the University of Mississippi.  Graduated in 1984,  John F. Riddell, owner of small town music, singer song writer, writing songs from personal experiences in the south, and hoping to change things not only in the south, but the world, finally made it back to Oxford in 2010 to sing on the Thacker Mountain Radio program.  Smiles of the heart were huge, when Frazier met Jim Dees for the manieth (not knowing that though & thought it would be 1st) time.  Jim was a mainstay at the HOKA.  Riddell spent lot's of time at the Hoka in the early 1980's.  It was a blast that night, as Riddell billed the show along with Cindy Wolff and her friends Big John on upright bass guitar and Emily Bakker on baritone ukelele.  After Thacker, those 3 and Riddell performed on the square in Oxford to a fine enthusiastic crowd at Roosters Blues House.  If you go to look up Cindy, remember the spelling.  I always want to put Wolf or Wolff instead of Woolf.
