about

there are several songs called "Mississippi Moon". i made this one from a chord progression writen on the train when i was part of the Bill Callahan tour recently.

lyrics

white moon rises in the sky on a
warm June. Mississippi night

but it can't hold a candle
too your brilliant banter
and all the shooting stars are new
and Mississippi too

gentle men and ladies stroll
down streets of old Biloxi town

where i met the Queen of Hearts
he stole my heart away
and everything was new
like a Mississippi...

moon rises in the sky on a
warm June, Mississippi night

but it can't hold a candle
too your brilliant banter
and all the shooting stars are new
and Mississippi
