Mister And Mississippi

歌词

I can't recall my mother, I don't remember dad

Mister and Mississippi was all I ever had

Oh, I was born to wander, I was born to roam

And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

My cradle was the river, my school a river boat

My teacher was a gambler, the slickest one afloat

He taught me not to gamble on a petticoat

Oh, I was born to wander, I was born to roam

And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

Oh, darlin' how I love you, what more is there to say?

I love you like a barefoot girl loves the summer day

The way a wanderin' gypsy loves the changing sea

Just like the restless river loves old New Orleans

I love a tiny village, a quiet country town

A house, a little garden with kiddies runnin' 'round

You'd be a faithful husband, I'd be a trusty friend

Until I heard that steamboat comin' 'round the bend

Oh, I was born to wander, I was born to roam

And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home

Oh, I was born to wander, I was born to roam

And Mister and Mississippi made me feel at home
