Into Mississippi

Into the wilds of Mississippi
You and I will go
Through the bottoms laden with kudzu
Into creeks where dank waters flow

Feasting upon the muscadine
It's skin a purple fare
honey suckle paradise

will hover on the air

We'll scour the furrows for arrowheads
After the tumultuous rains
We'll drag the rivers for catfish
Mississippi sustenance coursing in your veins

We'll sleep within the deer camp
Smoky stories to walk our dreams
You'll know the purpose in existence
What the heart of Mississippi means
