Miss The Mississippi And You

(álbum: Miss The Mississippi - 1979)

I'm growing tired of this big city lights
Tired of the glamour and tired of the sights
In all my dreams I'm 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 everywhere I roam
Miss the Mississippi and you

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

Yo-de-lee-ooo-lei, yo-de-lee-ooo-lei
Yo-de-lee-ooo-lei, ooh

Memories are bringing
Happy days of your
Miss the Mississippi and you
Mockingbirds are singing
'Round the cabin door
Miss the Mississippi and you

Roaming the wide world over
Always alone and blue, so blue
Longing for my homeland
Muddy water shore
Miss the Mississippi, and you

Yo-de-lee-ooo-lei, yo-de-lee-ooo-lei
Mississippi, and you
