Oh Mississippi Lyrics

oh mighty river
the mississippi's
turbulent waters
lull me to sleepplease take my hand
i will go softly
your arms around me
you'll be my manthe leaves are changin'
i cross this road
to make my last walk
in that warm sunshineoh mighty river
oh mississippi
oh all the troubles your banks have seencarry their stories from north to south
but 'round these parts you're westward boundthe factories closin'
kids have grown so fast
lift up their woe please
as you flow pastoh witness river
you have seen it all
now do your waters

have room for one moreoh endless river
as you transcend
please take me with you
far from this land
