Miss the Mississippi and You Lyrics

by Jerry Lee Lewis

Jerry Lee Lewis Miss the Mississippi and You Lyrics

I:
I'm growing tired of the big city lights
Tired of the glamour and tired of the sights
In all my dreams I am roaming once more
Back to my home on that old river shore
CHORUS:
I am sad and weary far away from home
I miss the Mississippi and you dear
Mocking birds are singing 'round the cabin door
Miss the Mississippi and you
II:
I keep 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
CHORUS:
Memories are bringing, happy days of young
Miss the Mississippi and you, dear
Mocking birds are singing 'round the cabin door
Miss old Mississippi and you
III:
I keep roaming the wide world over
Always alone and blue, so blue
Longing for my homeland
Muddy water shore
Miss the Mississippi and you
