1c

As the moon goes fading



1a

He lies awake waiting



1d

For a break in the night



25

When he makes he's lonely flight



20

And it's the same old story



1d

Somebody bound for glory



1d

And somewhere in my life



1d

I swear it had to belong



5





21

I've been countin' the stars



25

As they come on through the bars



20

And i've been heard singin'



15

A sad man's song



1a

It's time for busting



15

Out of this jail



15

And get me a gun



15

No time for bail



30

And i've been here too many nights too long



5





18

And now i wonder if



1c

They'll find me tonight



22

I've been sleepin' in the day



25

Runnin' below the pale moonlight



5





1a

Hidin' in a canebrake



25

From a man i can't seem to shake



13

And in my head



20

I'm hearing a southern song



11

Mississippi,



18

Roll on in my brain



1a

And keep me sheltered



17

In the summer rain



35

I could never stay here too many nights too long



5





18

And now i wonder if



1c

They'll find me tonight



22

I've been sleepin' in the day



25

Runnin' below the pale moonlight



5





1e

Escondido en un canaveral



22

De un hombre que no puedo ver



1b

Y el hombre, escondido



12

De donde sera



11

Mississippi,



18

Roll on in my brain



1a

And keep me sheltered



17

In the summer rain



35

I could never stay here too many nights too long



35

I could never stay here too many nights too long
