[00:00.00]Mississippi River Blues - Bob Wills/Tommy Duncan/The Texas Playboys
[00:09.11]Oh you Mississippi River
[00:11.36]
[00:12.41]With waters so deep and wide
[00:16.22]
[00:18.00]My thoughts of you keep rising
[00:22.17]
[00:23.44]Just like an evening tide
[00:27.12]
[00:29.62]I'm just like a seagull that's left the sea
[00:38.10]
[00:39.56]Oh your muddy waters keep on calling me
[00:47.28]
[00:49.00]I'm gonna pack my grip and head that way
[00:53.63]You'll see me hanging around again some day
[00:58.04]Cause I know that's the only way to lose
[01:01.76]
[01:02.63]The Mississippi river blues
[01:07.38]
[01:08.01]The Mississippi river blues
[01:15.92]
[01:44.07]I've often ridden on your bosom
[01:47.86]
[01:48.39]From Memphis down to New Orleans
[01:52.62]
[01:55.18]Floating over muddy waters
[01:59.42]Drifting through familiar scenes
[02:03.03]
[02:05.32]And when I hear that whistle of an old steamboat
[02:12.80]
[02:14.88]Down that Mississippi river again I'm a-going to float
[02:23.95]
[02:25.47]I'm gonna pack my grip and head that way
[02:30.03]You'll see me hanging around again some day
[02:34.52]For I know that's the only way to lose
[02:38.29]
[02:39.53]That mean old Mississippi river blues
[02:44.03]
[02:44.65]That Mississippi river blues
