Mississippi Moon Lyrics

Intro:
You tell me you're lonely
I know how you feel
Leaning up at the bones
Rocking back on my heals
She's a wild bird that wandered
Too easy, too stray
I knew she had to lose me
To find her own way
(chorus)
Oh, curry*, I'll be coming soon
--> Through the Lou'siana pines to the Mississippi moon (x2)<--
A wave on the ocean
A whirlwind on the sea
I took a notion
That her ship would not land(?)
So light me a candle
In the forest so deep
Honey, lay down beside me
Angels rock us to sleep
(chorus)
Oh, curry*, I'll be coming soon
--> Through the Lou'siana pines to the Mississippi moon (x2) <--
