Mr. and Mississippi |
I can’t recall my mother |
I don’t remember dad |
Mister and Mississippi was all I ever had |
Oh, I was born to wander |
I was born to roam |
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home |
My cradle was the river |
My school a river boat |
My teacher was a gambler |
The slickest one afloat |
My teacher was a gambler |
The slickest one afloat |
He taught me not to gamble on a petticoat |
Oh, I was born to wander |
I was born to roam |
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home |
Oh, darlin' how I love you |
What more is there to say |
I love you like a barefoot girl |
Loves the summer day |
The way a wanderin' gypsy |
Loves the changing sea |
Just like the restless river |
Loves old New Orleans |
I love a tiny village |
A quiet country town |
A house, a little garden |
With kiddies runnin' 'round |
You’d be a faithful husband |
I’d be a trusty friend |
Until I heard that steamboat |
Comin' 'round the bend |
Oh, I was born to wander |
I was born to roam |
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home |
Oh, I was born to wander |
I was born to roam |
And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home |
