Barbara Fairchild Mississippi Lyrics

Mississippi Lyrics



Where you can hear a country song for fun

And someone plays the honky tonk guitar

Where all the lights will go out one by one

Where people join the song and the wind takes it away

Where the Misissippi rolls down to the sea

And lovers found the place they like to be

How many times before this song was ending

Love and understanding everywhere around

Mississippi I'll remember you

Whenever I shall go away I'll be longing for the day

That I will be in Greenville again

Mississippi you'll be on my mind

Every time I hear this song Mississippi roll along

Until the end of time

[ steel ]

Now the country song forever lost its soul

When the guitar picker turned to rock'n roll

And everytime when summer nights are falling

I always will be calling dreams of yesterday

Mississippi I'll remember you...
