Apples dipped in candy
Sweet potato eye
One is for your belly
The other's for your mind
Day off on Sunday
When the rent is not behind
Well, that's the way it goes
Day's in Mississippi
Movin' mighty slow
Like that old blackbird
Standing by the road
Able wind at times get rough
To just pick up and go
Further on down the line
Hey rich man, poor man
Beggar or thief
First one gets you down the road
Next one gets you grief
Last one gets you night and days
Of cotton pickin' peas
On the Captain's farm
Apples dipped in candy
Sweet potato eye
One is for your belly
The other's for your mind
Day off on Sunday
When the rent is not behind
Well, that's the way it goes
Apples dipped in candy
Sweet potato eye
That's the way it goes
Sweet potato eye
My love
