Miss the Mississippi and You

I'm growing tired of the big city's lights
Tired of the glimmer and tired of the sights
In all my dreams I am roaming once more
Back to my home on the old river shore

I am sad and weary
Far away from home
Miss the Mississippi and you
Days are dark and dreary
Every where I roam
Miss the Mississippi and you

I'm roaming the wide world over
Always feeling so blue, yes so blue
Nothing seems to cheer me
Under heaven's dome
Miss the Mississippi and you

Mississippi and you

Memories are bringing
Happy days of yore
Miss the Mississippi and you
Mocking birds are singing
'Round my shotgun door
Miss the Mississippi and you

I'm a roaming the whole world over
Always feeling so blue, yes so blue
Longing for that low land
Muddy water shore
Miss the Mississippi and you

Mississippi and you
