Mississippi Cotton Picking Delta Town Teclado

	  
B    E                          B 
In a Mississippi cotton pickin' Delta town 
                    E 
One dusty street to walk up and down 
                          A 
Nothin' much to see but a starvin' hound 
     B                                E 
In a Mississippi cotton pickin' Delta town
 

verse 1 
E                       B 
Down in the Delta where I was born 
                            E 
All we raised was cotton, potatoes and corn 
                           A 
I've picked cotton till my fingers hurt 
B                                    E 
Draggin' the sack through that Delta dirt 
                         B 
And I've worked hard the whole week long 
                          E 
Pickin' my fingers to the blood and bone 
                                A  
There ain't a lot of money in a cotton bale 
   B                     E   
At least when you try to sell 

B    E                          B 
In a Mississippi cotton pickin' Delta town 
                    E 
One dusty street to walk up and down 
                          A 
Nothin' much to see but a starvin' hound 
     B                                E

verse 2 
                        B 
On Saturday nights we'd get dressed up 
                     E 
Catch us a ride on a pickup truck 
                            A 
On a gravel road, it nearly strangled us 
     B                    E   B 
That cotton pickin' Delta dust 
E                                 B 
We'd sit across the street on the depot porch 
                             E 
Lookin' at the folks lookin' back at us 
                           A 
Munchin' on a dust covered ice cream cone 
B                           E    
Wondering how we'd get back home 

B      E                          B 
From a Mississippi cotton pickin' Delta town 
                    E 
One dusty street to walk up and down 
                            A 
Nothin' much to do but just hang around 
     B                                E 
In a Mississippi cotton pickin' Delta town 
B      E                          B 
From a Mississippi cotton pickin' Delta town 
                    E  
One dusty street to walk up and down 
                            A 
Nothin' much to do but just hang around 
     E                          B     E
