THE WRONG END
(of the Mississippi River)

I tried to be a "Bluesman", I can't seem to get it right
Well, I tried to be a "Bluesman", I can't seem to get it right
When I drink my whiskey, I can't stay out TOO late at night

Way up north where the Mississippi's born
There's not a lot of cotton, just a lot of corn
Black dirt farmers trying to sow their seeds
Blonde haired, blue-eyed people called Swedes
 
On The WRONG END of The Mississippi River
It's a land of snow and ice, Lord knows you gonna SHIVER!
 
Because I was born on The WRONG END Of The Mississippi River
I was born on The WRONG END Of The Mississippi River
If my woman up and left me, I'd probably just forgive her
 
Late at night I'm standing at the crossroad
I tried to sell the devil my soul
All alone out on Highway 61
Satan couldn't see me through the midnight sun
 
I'm on The WRONG END Of The Mississippi River
It's a land of snow and ice, Lord knows you gonna SHIVER!
 
Well I tried to be a "Bluesman", can't seem to get it right
Said, I tried to be a "Bluesman", I can't seem to get it right
When I drink my whiskey, I can't stay up TOO late at night
 
I asked the saleslady for a "Mojo Hand"
She tried to sell me something that was made in Japan
She said "I got something that you will like better"
She tried to sell me a "Mohair" sweater
 
On The WRONG END Of The Mississippi River
It's a land of snow and ice, Lord knows you gonna SHIVER!
 
I tell ya that I was born on The WRONG END Of The Mississippi River
Said, I was born on The WRONG END Of The Mississippi River
If my woman up and left me, I'd probably just forgive her
 
 Itasca, Minnesota, USA
The Wrong End
