C Ab7
When the sun goes down and the tide goes out,
C C7 B7 Bb7 A7
The people gather 'round and they all begin to shout,
D7 G+
"Hey! Hey! Uncle Dud!
C Cdim C Cdim C Cdim C
It's a treat to beat your feet on the Mississippi Mud.
Cdim C Cdim C Cdim C Cdim G7
It's a treat to beat your feet on the Mississippi Mud".
C Ab7 C C7 B7 Bb7 A7
What a dance do they do! Lordy, how I'm tellin' you!
Dm A7 Dm A7 Dm A7 Dm A7
They don't need no band. They keep time by clappin' their hand.
F F#dim C A7
Just as happy as a cow--- chewin' on a cud,
D7 G7 C
When the people beat their feet on the Mississippi Mud.
