Текст песни: Mississippi + перевод

I was sleeping with my head beneath the ground

And I was deeply dreaming of slowly going down

To be drowned

My heart was beating, but my blood was running cold

One more year of this mistreating of myself and I’ll be old

Before my time comes

But I had no clue what to do

I can’t untie these old brown shoes

I’ve been cast in stone and painted blue

Beneath the Mississippi moon

So I drove up the river about four hundred miles

Where I wandered around, and in a very short while

You know I found it there

I said, I am here to deliver, this news it must get through

I have brought myself to tell you I do not know what to do

I was sleeping with my head beneath the ground

And I was deeply dreaming of slowly going down

To be drowned

So I drove up the river about four hundred miles

Where I wandered around, and in a very short while

You know I found it there

But I had no clue what to do

I can’t untie these old brown shoes

I’ve been cast in stone and painted blue

Beneath the Mississippi moon
