Miss The Mississippi And You Lyrics - Singles - Guthrie Arlo

I'm growing tired of the big city lights 

Tired of the glamour and tired of the sights 

In all my dreams I am roaming once more 

Back to my home on the old river shore 

I am sad and weary far away from home 

Miss the Mississippi and you dear 

Days are dark and dreary everywhere I roam 

Miss the Mississippi and you 

Roaming the wide world over 

Always along and blue, so blue 

Nothing seems to cheer me under heaven's dome 

Miss the Mississippi and you 

Memories are bringing happy days of yore 

Miss the Mississippi and you 

Mocking birds are singing 'round the cabin door 

Miss the Mississippi and you 

Roamin the wide world over 

Always alone and blue 

Longing form my homeland, muddy water shore 

Miss the Mississippi and you
