[C] [Gm]
How the weather in the country, how the weather down south, how the weather in the delta,
how the food taste in your mouth.
Butter, beans [Bb] and cornbread, reds and [C] greens, [Gm] candy ales and black eyed peas.
[C] If you're going to Mississippi, [Gm] [C] where that delta sky [Gm] is sweet and clear.
Oh y'all [D] I'm stuck here in Chicago, please don't leave me [Gm] here.
When you see Ludella, tell her hey from me.
Last time I saw her, it was in my dreams.
She's the sweetest thing under the [C] sun.
[Gm] When I think about some love, [Bb] she's still around.
[Gm] [C] Now if you're going to [Gm] Mississippi, where that delta sky is sweet and clear.
When I'm [D] stuck here in Chicago, please [Bb] don't leave me here.
[Gm] What they doing in Vicksburg, down in Aberdeen?
They got more fine big leg women than them one man emps.
What they doing in Jackson and Little O' Eater Bean?
I ain't been to Cork since 1963, cause if you're going to Mississippi,
where that delta sky is sweet and clear.
[D] Y'all I'm stuck here in Chicago, please don't [Bb] leave me here.

[Gm] here [D] in Jackson and

[Gm] Hotter weather in the delta, sure cold up here.
[F] [Bb] Baby run off and left me late [C] last year.
It was [Gm] just four crib months, deep deep snow on the ground.
[F] [Bb] Came home late over [Gm] in the evening, she done tore my playhouse down.
So if you're going to Mississippi, [C]
[Gm] where that delta sky is sweet and clear.
Oh y [D]'all I'm stuck here in Chicago, please don't leave [Gm] me here.
Don't [G] [Gm] leave, please don't leave me here.

Please don't leave, please don't leave me here.
