"Mississippi Moon Dog" lyrics

Crawling through the swamps and you here me moan
Stalking after midnight I'm all alone
Three ways to Sunday that's how it be
Never take a walk alone coming after me
Oh. Oh. Walk it like you talk it
Oh. Oh. Watch it where you been stalking around. No

Mama got the voodoo little bones
Daddy got a mojo nobody knows
Can't get started 'til the night
The stars come out and moon is getting bright
Oh. Oh. Watch out what your sipping
Oh. Oh. Daddy knows you been messing around

Kept him working. Work it hard, boy

Mississippi moon dog shaking after midnight
Gonna sweat the devil out of you
Mississippi moon dog voodoo all around now
A rattlesnake a rabbits foot too

All night long your testifying
The truth that your signifying
You ain't slept in half a week
There's no more disciples to listen to you speak
Oh. Oh. What the hell you saying?
Oh. Oh. Who you think you portraying now?

Mississippi moon dog sneaking out of Memphis
The rivers in view
Mississippi moon dog reaching through the darkness
Sun never shines through
Mississippi moon dog listen to 'em howling
Muddy waters singing out the blues
Mississippi moon dog chicken come a scratching at ya
The swamps pointing at you

Mississippi moon dog shaking all around now
Jackson's in view
Mississippi moon dog seven comes eleven now
Snake eyes won't do
Mississippi moon dog, Mississippi moon dog
Mississippi moon dog, Mississippi moon dog
