Roll On, Mississippi, Roll On

Roll On, Mississippi, Roll On - The Boswell Sisters

Hear that whistle there goes that bell

That means we're on my way

All aboard boy I'm feeling swell

This is my happy day

Paddle wheel you're mighty mighty slow

That's why I keep on shouting

Let her go

Roll on you Mississippi roll on

Hang on you lazy steamer

Quit your stalling and move along

Clear the river here we come

Watch her smoke boy

Hear that engine humming lawdy

Take a look at that shore

With the folks I adore

There's a spot around that bend

That's my home my journey's end

Come on you old man river come on

Roll on you Mississippi roll

New Orleans hello

Bye-bye New Orleans

Get along

Going strong

Baton Rouge

Hold on

Say capain tell me

What's the next big town we'll see

I'm so excited I'm as happy as can be

Oh roll on you Mississippi roll on

Come on you lazy steamer move on

See that river here we come

Watch that smoke boy hear that hum

There's a spot around that bend

That's my home my journey's end

Here we come

Roll on you old man river come on

Move on you lazy steamer move on

Roll on you Mississippi

Roll on you Mississippi roll on
