Summertime in Mississippi

Summertime in Mississippi bugs are all in the air.
Summertime in Mississippi women wearin' flowers in their hair.
We drink whiskey and water and just watch the time slip away.
Summertime in Mississippi the days are long and so are the nights.
Summertime in Mississippi everyone lives the life.
REFRAIN

I used to wonder what all this time's for,
but on those warm nights on the Gulf Shore,
I learned what everyone in Mississippi knows.
We're here to enjoy just one thing:
whiskey and water and watching the time slip away.

Summertime in Mississippi is a good time to be young.
Summertime in Mississippi is a fine time to grow old.
REFRAIN
Summertime in Mississippi I'll carry you with me wherever I go.
Summertime in Mississippi a warm spot on my soul.
REFRAIN

about

Elijah Cash Pleasanton, Texas

Eli mainly plays the blues. Not because it is his chosen or favorite method; rather, it's what life gave him—it was in the tool bag he was born with, if you will. Eli’s music is for lost boys and for women who want to be found. He’s pioneering the market of city slickers who feel something’s missing—because it is.

Eli is a contributing artist to the Crowdsource Inspiration project.
