Clarksdale the town laying heavy on my mind
Clarksdale is a town laying heavy on my mind
I can have a good time there and not have one lousy dime
Clarksdale, Mississippi always gonn' be my home,
Clarksdale, Mississippi always gonn' be my home,
That’s the reason why you hear me set right here and moaning.
Every day in the week, I go down to Midtown
Every day in the week, I go down to Midtown Drugs,
Get me a bottle o' snuff, and a bottle o' Alcorub.
Nobody knows Clarksdale like I do,
Nobody knows Clarksdale like I do,
And the reason I know it,
I follows it through and through.
