Mississippi Half-Step Uptown Toodeloo
(Garcia,Hunter)
Intro
COn the day when E7I was born
FDaddy sat down and Amcried.
FI had the mark just as Cplain as Gday;
Which D7could not be deG7nied.
CThey say that Cain caught AE7bel
FRollin' loaded Amdice;
FAce of Spades behCind his Gear
And Fhim not thinkin' tE7wice.
AmHalfstep, Mississippi uptown toodeloo
FHello, baby, I'm Cgone, goodGbye
FHalf a cup of CRock and GRye.
FFarewell to you old CSouthern Gskies
I'm Amon my way,E7 on my way.

If all you got to live for
Is what you left behind,
Get yourself a powder charge
And seal that silver mine.
Lost my boots in transit, babe,
A pile of smokin' leather.
I nailed a retread to my feet
And prayed for better weather.
They say that when your ship comes in,
The first man takes the sails;
The second takes the afterdeck,
The third the planks and rails
What's the point of callin' shots;
This cue ain't straight in line.
Cue ball's made of styrofoam
And no one's got the time.
AAcross the Rio DGrandeeo, AAcross the lazy Driver.
