Oh you Mississippi River, | |
with waters so deep and wide | |
My thoughts of you keep rising, | |
just like an evening tide | |
I´m just like a seagull that´s left the sea | |
Oh your muddy waters keep on calling me | |
I´m gonna pack my grip and head that way | |
You´ll see me hanging around again some day | |
Cause I know that´s the only way to lose | |
The Mississippi river blues | |
The Mississippi river blues | |
I´ve often ridden on your bosom | |
From Memphis down to New Orleans | |
Floating over muddy waters, | |
drifting through familiar scenes | |
And when I hear that whistle of an old steamboat | |
Down that Mississippi river again I´m a-going to float | |
I´m gonna pack my grip and head that way | |
You´ll see me hanging around again some day | |
for I know that´s the only way to lose | |
That mean old Mississippi river blues | |
That Mississippi river blues |
Oh you Mississippi River, | |
with waters so deep and wide | |
My thoughts of you keep rising, | |
just like an evening tide | |
I m just like a seagull that s left the sea | |
Oh your muddy waters keep on calling me | |
I m gonna pack my grip and head that way | |
You ll see me hanging around again some day | |
Cause I know that s the only way to lose | |
The Mississippi river blues | |
The Mississippi river blues | |
I ve often ridden on your bosom | |
From Memphis down to New Orleans | |
Floating over muddy waters, | |
drifting through familiar scenes | |
And when I hear that whistle of an old steamboat | |
Down that Mississippi river again I m agoing to float | |
I m gonna pack my grip and head that way | |
You ll see me hanging around again some day | |
for I know that s the only way to lose | |
That mean old Mississippi river blues | |
That Mississippi river blues |
Oh you Mississippi River, | |
with waters so deep and wide | |
My thoughts of you keep rising, | |
just like an evening tide | |
I m just like a seagull that s left the sea | |
Oh your muddy waters keep on calling me | |
I m gonna pack my grip and head that way | |
You ll see me hanging around again some day | |
Cause I know that s the only way to lose | |
The Mississippi river blues | |
The Mississippi river blues | |
I ve often ridden on your bosom | |
From Memphis down to New Orleans | |
Floating over muddy waters, | |
drifting through familiar scenes | |
And when I hear that whistle of an old steamboat | |
Down that Mississippi river again I m agoing to float | |
I m gonna pack my grip and head that way | |
You ll see me hanging around again some day | |
for I know that s the only way to lose | |
That mean old Mississippi river blues | |
That Mississippi river blues |
