Roll On Mississippi

Roll On Mississippi - Graham Blvd.

Walking along, whistling a song

Bare foot and fancy free

A big riverboat, passing us by

She's headed for New Orleans

There she goes, disappearing around a bend

Roll on Mississippi, you make me feel like a child again

Cool river breeze, like peppermint leaves

The taste of it takes me back

Chewing on a straw, torn overalls

Cane pole and old straw hat

Muddy river, just like a long lost friend

Roll on Mississippi, you make me feel like a child again

Roll on Mississippi, big river roll

You're the childhood dream, I grew up on

Roll on Mississippi, carry me home

Now I can see I've been away too long

Roll on, Mississippi, roll on

When the world's spinning round, too fast for me

I need a place to dream

So I come to your banks, I sit in your shade

And relive the memories

Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn

Roll on Mississippi, you make me feel like a child again

Roll on Mississippi, big river roll

You're the childhood dream I grew up on

Roll on Mississippi, carry me home

Now I can see I've been away too long

Roll on, Mississippi, roll on

Mississippi roll on

Roll on, Mississippi

Roll on, Mississippi

Roll on, Mississippi
