Mississipi Rollin' Stone Songtext
von Ike & Tina Turner

Early in the mornin, workin in the rain, in the mississippi bottom cuttin sugar cane.
I′ve been here a week, I'm gonna loose my mind, So I′m gonna get outta here come dinner time.

Yeah yeah ooh ooh yeah

I'm cuttin out across the field, climbin up on the road, ya'll don′t ask me where I′m goin cause I don't know.
Oh all I know is that I know I got to go.

Well I don′t want to buy it I just want to try it on cause I'm a Mississippi Rollin Stone.
If you follow my the tracks you′ll have a long walk back cause they just keep ramblin on.
I'm just like the wind that kind of slippin in
I don′t need nothin when I'm gone cause I'm a Mississippi Rollin Stone.

Well I used to have a man once upon a time.
He didn′t have a thing cause everything was mine.
He didn′t want to leave me and I didn't want him to stay.
We just struttin to make it that a way.

Yeah yeah
That′s why I know I got to go...
I got to roll


Well I didn't want to buy it I just want to try it on cause I′m a Mississippi Rollin Stone.
If you follow my tracks you'll have a long walk back cause they just keep ramblin on.
I′m just like the wind (unlegible part)
I don't need nothin when I'm gone cause I′m a Mississippi Rollin Stone.

And I have to roll on
Have to go on
Got to move on
I′m a Mississippi Rollin Stone
I got to roll on
Got to go to where I just don't know

See I′m just like a rabbit that's got to roam
I ain′t got no special home
But I tell you I got to roll on
Got to roll on roll on roll on

Cause I'm a Mississippi Rollin Stone
Mississippi Rollin Stone
I got to roll on

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Got to go
Where I just don′t know
Cause I got to roll on
