(Red Lane)
2
The reflections of the trees are cut by the bow of my pirogue
3
And spattered by the paddle of my eager hand
4
That Mississippi woman is a wavin' over yonder
5
Wavin' her lantern for her Louisiana man.
6
How I love that Mississippi woman
7
How I love that Mississippi girl
8
How I love that Mississippi woman
9
But her heart does not belong to me.
10
The lantern light and moonbeams are dancing patterns on the water
11
She doesn't seem to realize I've learned her secret plans
12
My jealous mind is thinking as I paddle through the sleeping alligators
13
She don't know I know about her Louisiana man.
14
How I love that Mississippi woman
15
How I love that Mississippi girl
16
How I love that Mississippi woman
17
But her heart does not belong to me.
18
The reflections of the trees are cut by the bow of my pirogue
19
And splattered by the paddle of my shaky hand
20
The silence from behind me is alive with the splashing alligators
21
And the lantern light is blinking on the bottom in the sand.
22
How I love that Mississippi woman
23
How I love that Mississippi girl
24
How I love that Mississippi woman
25
But her heart did not belong to me.
26
How I love that Mississippi woman
27
How I love that Mississippi girl
28
How I love that Mississippi woman
29
But her heart did not belong to me...
