[D]Sally's up in Mississippi tonight.
With a [G]man she [G/#F]hardly [Em]knows.
Sally's wearing brand new clothes.
(uppor[G]tunity [G/#F]don't come [Em]twice.)?
so Sally said bye-bye.
I [A]hope she is all right, up in Mississippi tonight.

Sally lived before the sun could rise.
(When a cityman came to town.)?
She turn his head around.
it was love whit just one look,
when she saw the size of his pocket-book.
Sally's doing fine, she's up in Mississippi tonight.

But she [C]did what she had to do.
You [G]know I'm happy for you,
but [Em]sometimes please think of me ( [A]           )?

Sally's up in Mississippi tonight.
Staying in a big hotel.

Driving a brand new car.
Drinking in fancy bar's.
