[00:00.00]Mississippi River Blues - Jimmie Rodgers
[00:12.19]The Mississippi River Blues
[00:19.41]Oh you Mississippi river with water
[00:24.52]So deep and wide
[00:29.80]My thoughts of you keep rising
[00:35.08]Just like an evening tide
[00:41.76]I'm just like a seagull that's left the sea
[00:51.23]Oh your muddy waters they keep on calling me
[01:01.22]I'm going to pack my grip and head that way
[01:05.66]You'll see me hanging around again some day
[01:10.03]'Cause I know that's the only way to lose
[01:15.12]The Mississippi River Blues
[01:19.02]The Mississippi River Blues
[01:25.62]I've often ridden on your bosom from Memphis
[01:30.24]Down to New Orleans
[01:35.77]Dreaming over muddy waters flowing
[01:41.57]Through familiar scenes
[01:47.05]And when I hear the whistle of an old steamboat
[01:57.11]Down that Mississippi River again
[02:01.70]I'm going to float
[02:07.12]I'm going to pack my grip and head that way
[02:11.58]You'll see me hanging around again some day
[02:16.00]'Cause I know that's the only way to lose
[02:20.74]The mean old Mississippi River Blues
[02:26.03]The Mississippi River Blues
