[Verse 1]
I'm growing tired of the big city lights
Tired of the glamor and tired of the sights
In all my dreams, I am roaming once more
Back to my home on the old river shore
[Chorus]
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
[Verse]
Rolling the wide world over
Always alone and blue, so blue
Nothing seems to cheer me under heaven's dome
Miss the Mississippi and you
Oh de le-ee oh de le-ee de oh le-ee oh de le-ee
Oh le-ee oh de le-ee oh de le-ee
[Chorus]
Memories are bringing happy days of yore
Miss the Mississippi and you, dear
Mockingbirds are singing round the cabin door
Miss the Mississippi and you
[Verse]
Rolling the wide world over
Always alone and blue, blue
Longing for my homeland muddy water shore
Miss the Mississippi and you
Oh de le-ee oh de le-ee de oh le-ee oh de le-ee
Mississippi and you
