Deep down in Mississippi
I found my sweet delta blue
She weaved a little southern spell on me
Made a little voodoo

Verse 2 (same chords as in verse 1):
F#5
Met her in a Dixie diner
Put on the southern hospitality
I can still smell her sweet molasses
Running all over me
E5
We started rollin' like a river
Like a twister tearin' through the town
B5
We we're tongue-tied, satisfied, southern fried
As she drove this ol' Dixie down

C#5 D5
