(Yodel) The MississCippi RG7iver BlCues

Oh you MCississippi River, with waC7ters so deep and wGide,

My thoCughts of you keep rising, jG7ust like an evening tCide.

IF'm just like a seagull that's left the sCea,

Oh your mGuddy waters, they kG7eep on callin' Cme

Bridge

I'm gonna pFack my grip and head that way,

You'll see me haCngin' 'round again someday.

'Cos I know thGat's the only way to lose,

The MG7ississippi River BlCues.

(Yodel) The MississCippi RG7iver BlCues.

I've often rCidden on your bosom, from MeC7mphis down to New OrlGeans,

Dreaming oCver muddy waters, floG7wing through familiar scCenes.

And when I hFear the whistle of an old steam bCoat,

Down that MGississippi River, agG7ain I'm going to flCoat.

I'm gonna pFack my grip and head that way,

You'll see me haCngin' 'round again someday.

'Cos I know thGat's the only way to lose,

The MG7ississippi River BlCues.
