Miss the Mississippi and You Songtext
von Emmylou Harris

(Bill Halley)

I′m growing tired of the big city lights
Tired of the glamor 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, you
Days are dark and dreary everywhere I roam
Miss the Mississippi and you.


Rolling the wide world over
Always alone and blue
Nothin' seems to cheer me under heaven′s dome
Miss the Mississippi and you.

--- Instrumental ---

I'm growing tired of the big city lights
Tired of the glamor tired of the sights
In all my dreams I am roaming once more
Back to my home on the old river shore.

Mhm, mhm, mhm, mhm
Mississippi and you...
