"My Head's In Mississippi" is a song by ZZ Top from their album Recycler.

The song was produced by band manager Bill Ham, and recorded and mixed by Terry Manning.

Years later, we were sitting in a tavern in Memphis called Sleep Out Louie's — you could see the Mississippi River.

"[3] In 2008, Gibbons stated, "'My Head’s in Mississippi,' which was one of the first completed tracks on the album, is a great example of how we mixed the new with the old.

Then Frank stepped in and threw in those highly gated electronic drum fills, which modernized the track.
