Merle Haggard - Miss The Mississippi And You Lyrics
by Bill HalleyI'm growing tired of the big city lightsTired of the glamour and tired of the sightsIn all my dreams I am roaming once moreBack to my home on the old river shoreI am sad and weary far away from homeMiss the Mississippi and you dearDays are dark and dreary everywhere I roamMiss the Mississippi and youRoaming the wide world overAlways along and blue, so blueNothing seems to cheer me under heaven's domeMiss the Mississippi and youMemories are bringing happy days of yoreMiss the Mississippi and youMocking birds are singing 'round the cabin doorMiss the Mississippi and youRoamin the wide world overAlways alone and blueLonging form my homeland, muddy water shoreMiss the Mississippi and you1932 Southern Music Publishing Company, Inc (ASCAP)All Rights Reserved.
