Down In Mississippi Jimmy Reed Old School Even the Boll Weevils Wear Overalls


Here is Jimmy Reed singing Down in Mississippi (where even the boll weevils wear overalls).
I saw him once in Columbus, Mississippi in 1961. He was playing a high school dance to a small crowd. And yes his wife stood by the piano and whispered the lyrics to him in his ear.
