[00:00.82]Mississippi River Blues - Jimmie Rodgers
[00:08.01]
[00:12.03]The Mississippi River blues
[00:19.44]Oh you Mississippi River
[00:22.57]
[00:23.21]With waters so deep and wide
[00:27.53]
[00:29.67]My thoughts of you keep rising
[00:34.00]
[00:34.87]Just like an evening tide
[00:38.99]
[00:41.72]I'm just like a seagull that's left the sea
[00:50.59]
[00:51.20]Oh your muddy waters they keep on calling me
[00:59.33]
[01:01.11]I'm going to pack my grip and head that way
[01:05.56]You'll see me hanging 'round again some day
[01:10.01]'Cause I know that's the only way to lose
[01:13.91]
[01:15.00]The Mississippi River blues
[01:18.89]The Mississippi River blues
[01:24.20]
[01:25.56]I've often ridden on your bosom
[01:29.47]From Memphis down the New Orleans
[01:33.82]
[01:35.79]Dreaming over muddy waters
[01:40.26]
[01:40.94]Floating through familiar scenes
[01:45.14]
[01:46.95]And when I hear that whistle of an old steamboat
[01:57.06]Down that Mississippi river again I'm going to float
[02:05.48]
[02:07.05]I'm gonna pack my grip and head that way
[02:11.44]You'll see me hanging 'round again some day
[02:15.99]'Cause I know that's the only way to lose
[02:20.17]
[02:20.71]That mean old Mississippi River blues
[02:25.83]The Mississippi River blues
