Roll on Mississippi Lyrics
Walkin' along, whistlin' a song
Barefoot and fancy free
A big riverboat, passing us by
She's headed for New Orleans
There she goes
Disappearing around the 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
Chewin' 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 (roll on Mississippi)
Big river roll
You're the childhood dream I grew up on
Roll on Mississippi (roll on Mississippi)
Carry me home
Now I can see I've been away too long
Roll on (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 (roll on Mississippi)
Big river roll
You're the childhood dream I grew up on
Roll on Mississippi (roll on Mississippi)
Carry me home
Now I can see I've been away too long
Roll on, Mississippi, roll on,
Mississippi (roll on Mississippi), roll on (roll on)
Roll on, Mississippi, roll on
Roll on, Mississippi
Barefoot and fancy free
A big riverboat, passing us by
She's headed for New Orleans
There she goes
Disappearing around the bend
Roll on Mississippi
You make me feel like a child again
The taste of it takes me back
Chewin' 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
Big river roll
You're the childhood dream I grew up on
Roll on Mississippi (roll on Mississippi)
Carry me home
Now I can see I've been away too long
Roll on (roll on), Mississippi, roll on
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
Big river roll
You're the childhood dream I grew up on
Roll on Mississippi (roll on Mississippi)
Carry me home
Now I can see I've been away too long
Roll on, Mississippi, roll on,
Mississippi (roll on Mississippi), roll on (roll on)
Roll on, Mississippi, roll on
Roll on, Mississippi
