Mister And Mississippi

歌詞

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 Oh! 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. My cradle was the river My school a river boat My teacher was a gambler The slickest one a float My teacher was a gambler The slickest one a float He taught me not to gamble On a petti coat. Oh! I was born to wander I was born to roam And Mister and Mississippi Made me feel at home. Oh! Darling, how I love you What more is there to say I love you like a barefoot boy Loves a summer day The way a wand'ring gypsy Loves the changing scenes Just like the restless river Loves old New Orleans. Oh! I was born to wander I was born to roam And Mister and Mississippi Made me feel at home. I'd love a tiny village A quiet country town A house, a little garden With kiddies running 'round You'd be a faithful husband I'd be a trusting 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.
