Miss The Mississippi & You |
| I’m growing tired of the big city lights |
| Tired of the glamor and tired of the sights |
| In all my dreams I am roaming once more |
| Back to my home on that old river shore |
| I am sad and weary far away from home |
| Miss the Mississippi and you, dear |
| Days are dark and dreary and 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 |
| Oh-del-lay-ee-oh-del-lay-ee |
| Dee-oh-lay-ee-oh-del-lay-ee |
| Oh-del-lay-ee-oh-del-lay-ee-oh-del-ee-del-lay-ee |
| 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 |
| Oh-del-lay-ee-oh-del-lay-ee |
| Dee-oh-lay-ee-oh-del-lay-ee |
| Mississippi and you |
