Mississippi Love Song

Steaming past the buoys in Illinois
Big wheel churns my spirit toys
Weathered portrait in weary hands
Await at the far end

Cruising by the levy in Tennessee
Anchor drops heart's heavy
Tarnished chain around my neck
Halfway in this trek

Here's a Mississippi love song
From me to you
I hope you like it
I really do
Wish the whole world could feel
The peace I do
The river that runs down below
Its calm and even flow

Sifting through the fog in Arkansas
Fifty knots my pulse jogs
Gunny sack by my side
Riding it in stride

Docking along the muddy bank
In a deep sleep my heart sank
Claimed your love had washed away
Let the current take my pain

Here's a Mississippi love song
From me to you
I hope you like it
I really do
Wish the whole world could feel
The peace I do
The river that runs down below
Its calm and even flow
Minneso to Mexico
Always on the go
