Mississippi River Lyrics

Marry me by the Mississippi River, baby
Take the train to New Orleans
Tell me that I'm yours foreverMarry me by the Mississippi River, baby
Take the train to New Orleans
Tell me that I'm yours foreverSoldier, fightin' to the end
I'll never be alone again
His love is endless
As mighty as a weaponNever gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go-o-o
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go-o-o
Carry me, to first [?]
Then kiss me in a cemetery
Ebony keys, and ivory
By the white gate serenade meTil the water starts rising
And the levee overflows
Sinners and saints gonna leave this place
But together we'll fight the stormNever gonna let you go

Never gonna let you go-o-o
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go-o-oMy days of darkness
The easy days are gone
Washed away
I need shelter in your arms
My dreams are drownin'
Along with this old town
Paradise is fallin'
How do we get back home?Never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go-o-o
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go-o-o
