(Dallas Frazier - Clarence R. Selman)

(Mississippi downtown, Mississippi downtown.)

I keep bumpin' into trees
Eyes wide open I can't see (mississippi downtown)
We're in the blindfold of love
I can't find my way downtown
Everything spins around and around (mississippi downtown)
We're in the blindfold of love.

I was hooked right from the start
And it's tearing me apart
That little girl's got a bear hug on my heart
I stay worried all the time
I can't get it off my mind (mississippi downtown)
We're in the blindfold of love.

(Mississippi downtown, Mississippi downtown.)

I'm as lost as I can be
Being in love is killin' me (mississippi downtown)
We're in the blindfold of love.
I can't see across the street
To recognize the friends I meet (mississippi downtown)
We're in the blindfold of love.

I was hooked right from the start
And it's tearing me apart
That little girl's got a bearhug on my heart
I stay worried all the time
I can't get it off my mind (mississippi downtown)
We're in the blindfold of love.

(Mississippi downtown, Mississippi downtown.)

Well, I was a-hooked right from the start
And it's tearing me apart
That little girl's got a bearhug on my heart
I stay worried all the time
I can't get it off my mind (mississippi downtown)
We're in the blindfold of love.

(Mississippi downtown.)
We're in the blindfold of love.
