Doc Watson Miss The Mississippi And You Lyrics

Miss The Mississippi And You Lyrics

I'm groing tired of the big city lights



Tired of the glamour, tired of the size



I'm alway dreaming of roaming once more



Back to my home on the old river shore







Days are dark and dreary everwhere I roam



How I long for Mississippi and you 



Nothing seems to cheer me under heaven's door



How I miss the Mississippi and you 







Roaming the wide world over



Always alone and blue, so blue



I am sad and weary, longing to go home



Yes, I miss the Mississippi and you 







(break)







Mockingbirds are singing 'round the cabindoor



While I dream of Mississippi and you



And my memories are bringing happy days of yore



I have spent in Mississippi with you







Roaming the wide world over



Always alone and blue, so blue



Longing for my homeland on that muddy watershore



Yes, I miss the Mississippi and you



The Mississippi and you
