Miss the Mississippi and You

[Verse 1]
I'm growing tired of the big city's lights
Tired of the glamor and tired of the sights
In all my dreams I am roaming once more
Back to my home on the old river shore

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
I'm roaming the wide world over
Always feeling so blue, yes so blue
Nothing seems to cheer me under heaven's dome
Miss the Mississippi and you
Mississippi and you

[Bridge]
Memories are bringing happy days of your
Miss the Mississippi and you
Mockingbirds are singing 'round my shotgun door
Miss the Mississippi and you

[Chorus]
I'm roaming the wholе world over
Always feeling so blue, yes so bluе
Longing for that lowland, muddy water shore
Miss the Mississippi and you
Mississippi and you
