Miss The Mississippi And You

I'm growing tired of the big city lights

Tired of the glamor and tired of the sights

In all of my dreams I am roaming once more

Back to my home on the old river shoreI am sad and weary far away from home

Miss the Mississippi and you, dear

Days are dark and dreary everywhere I roam

Miss the Mississippi and youRoaming the wide world over

Always alone and blue, so blue

Nothing seems to cheer me under heaven's dome

Miss the Mississippi and youRoaming the wide world over

Always alone and blue

Memories are bringing happy days of yore

Miss the Mississippi and you, dear

Longing for my homeland, muddy water shore

Miss the Mississippi and you
