Miss The Mississippi And You

I: I'm growing tired of the big city lights Tired of the glamour and tired of the sights In all my dreams I am roaming once more Back to my home on that old river shore I am sad and weary far away from home I miss the Mississippi and you dear Mocking birds are singing 'round the cabin door Miss the Mississippi and you II: I keep roaming the wide world over Always alone and blue, so blue Nothing seems to cheer me under heaven's dome Miss the Mississippi and you Memories are bringing, happy days of young Miss the Mississippi and you, dear Mocking birds are singing 'round the cabin door Miss old Mississippi and you III: I keep roaming the wide world over Always alone and blue, so blue Longing for my homeland Muddy water shore Miss the Mississippi and you
