Song Lyrics
oh mississippi
I cross this road, far from this land
I cross this road, in that warm sunshine, you have seen it all
Lull me to sleep, but round these parts you re westward bound Lissie, oh all the troubles your banks have seen
oh all the troubles your banks have seen
Turbulent waters, have room for one more Mississippi, lift up their woe please
carry these stories from north to south
to make my last walk
in that warm sunshine
As you transcend, but round these parts you re westward bound, as you transcend
Oh mighty river, oh mighty river
Oh endless river, oh all the troubles your banks have seen, oh mississippi
oh all the troubles your banks have seen
Lift up their woe please, i cross this road
Far from this land, you have seen it all Oh, carry these stories from north to south
The mississippi, lull me to sleep Lissie, but round these parts you re westward bound
oh endless river
lift up their woe please
As you transcend, oh endless river
Your arms around me you ll be my man, turbulent waters, the leaves are changin
To make my last walk, the mississippi
in that warm sunshine
Your arms around me you ll be my man, oh witness river
Lull me to sleep, turbulent waters, as you transcend
The mississippi, please take my hand, now do your waters
Oh witness river, oh mississippi, as you flow past
Oh witness river, oh all the troubles your banks have seen
Your arms around me you ll be my man, oh mighty river
Have room for one more, oh mighty river
As you transcend, oh witness river, kids have grown so fast
Oh endless river, the mississippi
The factories closin, please take me with you Mississippi, turbulent waters
To make my last walk, the mississippi
Oh mighty river, i will go gently
Oh mighty river, carry these stories from north to south
Oh endless river, kids have grown so fast
but round these parts you re westward bound
Please take me with you, as you transcend
To make my last walk, have room for one more Mississippi, oh endless river
your arms around me you ll be my man
Your arms around me you ll be my man, please take me with you
i will go gently
Oh mighty river, the mississippi
Please take me with you, the mississippi
Kids have grown so fast, the factories closin
The mississippi, you have seen it all
But round these parts you re westward bound, oh mighty river, oh mighty river
In that warm sunshine, the mississippi, far from this land
In that warm sunshine, kids have grown so fast
In that warm sunshine, i cross this road
Turbulent waters, as you transcend
Far from this land, kids have grown so fast
lift up their woe please
i will go gently
your arms around me you ll be my man
you have seen it all
lull me to sleep
Oh witness river, oh mighty river
