Shelby Lynne

recorded by Shelby Lynne on Restless

D

1.Put me on a boat on the mighty Mississippi

G D

Let old man river slow me down

Been too long gone from my sweet dixie

A D

Chasin' a dream from town to town

2.So I called my baby in Mobile, Alabama

Said meet me in Memphis on the Jackson Queen

Tell you right now we ain't in no big hurry

To make our way down to New Orleans

G C D

C.Slow me down

Somethin' 'bout the rhythm and the rollin' of the river

G C D

Slow me down

Rocks me like a baby in a rockin' chair

G C D

Slow me down

Sometin' 'bout the smell of a sweet magnolia

G C D

Slow me down

Makes me forget all my trounles and cares

Just a few more miles and I'll be there

3.Well I need a little time for some relaxation

A little bit of lovin' from my sugar pie

Only Heaven knows how my heart's been achin'

For a big yellow moon in a southern sky

(Repeat chorus and 3rd verse)
