half a cup of rock and rye
Half a cup of rock and rye, half a cup of rock and rye
They say that when your ship comes in, farewell to you old southern skies
half a cup of rock and rye
mississippi uptown toodeloo hello
Farewell to you old southern skies, what s the point of callin shots this cue ain t straight in line, i nailed a retread to my feet and prayed for better weather
Across the lazy river, half a cup of rock and rye
Ace of spades behind his ear and him not thinkin twice, cue ball s made of styrofoam and no one s got the time
I m on my way, i m on my way, i m on my way
If all you got to live for is what you left behind, half a cup of rock and rye Dead, i m on my way
I m on my way, mississippi uptown toodeloo hello
Half a cup of rock and rye, cue ball s made of styrofoam and no one s got the time
Mississippi uptown toodeloo hello, mississippi uptown toodeloo hello, i nailed a retread to my feet and prayed for better weather
the first man takes the sails
I nailed a retread to my feet and prayed for better weather, mississippi uptown toodeloo hello Mississippi, i nailed a retread to my feet and prayed for better weather
They say that cain caught abel rollin loaded dice, mississippi uptown toodeloo hello Uptown, i m on my way
What s the point of callin shots this cue ain t straight in line, i m on my way
Across the rio grandeeo, half a cup of rock and rye, what s the point of callin shots this cue ain t straight in line
They say that when your ship comes in, i m on my way, i nailed a retread to my feet and prayed for better weather
i had the mark just as plain as day which could not be denied
they say that cain caught abel rollin loaded dice
Farewell to you old southern skies, farewell to you old southern skies
I m on my way, half a cup of rock and rye
Get yourself a powder charge and seal that silver mine, lost my boots in transit Uptown, if all you got to live for is what you left behind
Get yourself a powder charge and seal that silver mine, i nailed a retread to my feet and prayed for better weather Mississippi, farewell to you old southern skies
i m on my way
