Hank III MISSISSIPPI MUD Sittin’ in the Beaux country Just me and my Fishin’ line I raised a lot of hell and I hollered Sippin’ on that Georgia moon shine Well, I know how to have a damn good time And I take my shots strait out of the jug And I like to get pure drunk in that Mississippi mud Well, lets throw us a little party baby Now I’ll call a few friends of mine We’ll dance all night till the sun comes up And we’ll drink our selves completely blind Then we’ll rock on down the line And I take my shots strait out of the jug And I like to do a little dance in that Mississippi mud Well, I was raised by an awful alligator Who taught me how to walk the line He used to deal cards from the bottom of the deck But a Tennessee woman took his life But he sure gave me some damn good advice And I take my shots strait out of the jug And I like to get pure drunk in that Mississippi mud Well, I take my shots strait out of the jug And I like to get puke drunk in that Mississippi mud
