Roll On Mississippi Lyrics
The song Roll On Mississippi is performed by Charley Pride .
Send Roll On Mississippi Ringtone to your Cell
Walking along, whistling a song, bare foot and fancy free
A big riverboat, pa*sing us by, she's headed for New Orleans
There she goes, disappearing around a bend
Roll on Mississippi, you make me feel like a child again
Cool river breeze, like peppermint leaves, the taste of it takes me back
Chewing on a straw, torn overalls, can't hold an old straw hat
Muddy river, just like a long lost friend
Roll on Mississippi, you make me feel like a child again
Roll on Mississippi, big river roll
You're the childhood dream, I grew up on
Roll on Mississippi, carry me home
Now I can see I've been away too long
Roll on, Mississippi, roll on
When the world's spinning round, too fast for me, I need a place to dream
So I come to your banks, I sit in your shade, and relive the memories
Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn
Roll on Mississippi, you make me feel like a child again
Roll on Mississippi, big river roll
You're the childhood dream that I grew up on
Roll on Mississippi, carry me home
Now I can see I've been away too long
Roll on, Mississippi, roll on
Mississippi roll on
Roll on, Mississippi, roll on
Roll on, Mississippi, roll on
